Brunson Teaching Day and Resident and Fellow Graduation

Brunson Teaching Day and Resident/Fellow Graduation

Brunson teaching day highlights our graduating senior residents and their research projects that they worked on throughout their residencies. Each one crafted a presentation and delivered it during grand rounds in front of the residents and staff gathered in the UMMC School of Medicine.

2023 Promotion and Tenure

Please help the department congratulate Drs. Veronica Carullo and Lakshmi Kurnutala on their academic promotions to full professor and Dr. John Adams on his academic promotion to associate professor! All three anesthesiologists have worked tirelessly in the areas of service, education, and research.

Where are they now?

The Department of Anesthesiology has always had such wonderful people who have contributed to make it what it is today. We would like to know what some of our colleagues and friends who have moved on are doing now and how UMMC has played a role in their careers and lives.

UMMC Medical Student Anesthesiology Interest Group Meet and Greet

Every year, thousands of graduating medical students across the country begin the grueling residency application process. While their strategy for ranking programs is highly individualized, a commonality among them is a perceived goodness of fit, with 87% of U.S. allopathic and osteopathic students citing it as the primary consideration during their decision making.

Showing Our Creative Side

In this newer section of the newsletter, we are "showing our creative side" as part of our wellness program. We encourage anesthesia faculty, CRNAs, residents, anesthesia technicians, and administrative staff to submit their artwork (paintings with descriptions), music interests (with narrative and photos), photography (with comments), poetry, or small narratives (less than one page).

Congratulations!

Our department is full of wonderful and engaging faculty, staff, and trainees who are being recognized on campus, in our community, and at the national level for their outstanding work and character. Each issue of the newsletter we will recognize awards and achievements of members of the department.

Meet our Residents and Fellows

We have fantastic residents and fellows in our department. A few will be featured in each newsletter. Please take the time to learn more about them!
