As the summer draws rapidly to a close, the Department of Anesthesiology is preparing for the rush of activity at Weill Cornell Medical College that accompanies the start of September.
In addition to arrival of new medical students, new residents, new fellows, and new faculty, the fall also sees Anesthesiology preparing to send many of its members to the Annual Conference of the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA). The 2013 ASA Conference is scheduled to be held in San Francisco from October 12-16. Of the numerous members of the Department who will be attending, particularly exciting is the participation of three Weill Cornell Anesthesiology Residents who are delivering papers or presenting posters at the Conference.
The three Anesthesiology Residents presenting papers or posters appear below.
