Education 2008 M.A.S., Clinical Research, UCSD (7/03 – 6/04) Pediatric Anesthesia Fellowship, Stanford (7/00 – 6/03) Anesthesiology Residency, Stanford (6/99 – 6/00) Transitional Internship, Georgetown 1999 M.D., Georgetown University School of Medicine 1995 B.S. with Honors, Biological Sciences, UC Davis Edward’s Story: Before coming to San Diego in 2004, Edward completed his anesthesiology residency and pediatric anesthesia fellowship at Stanford University Medical Center with emphases on clinical investigation and regional anesthesia for children. Edward initially enrolled in the Clinical Research Enhancement through Supplemental Training (CREST) program. His first priority when joining the department of anesthesia at UC San Diego was to provide good clinical care and resident teaching. After he felt established within the department, he decided it was time to begin clinical research training. CREST is designed primarily for postdoctoral candidates with an M.D. or Ph.D. degree that are developing a research focus in basic science or clinical investigation. CREST helps potential clinical investigators develop the proper tools to become successful researchers. After two years in that program, he elected to enroll in the optional third year to complete credits for the MAS degree in Clinical Research. Edward feels that getting this degree was a worthwhile investment for him, and it has also made him more competitive for receiving external grant funding. New knowledge and tools strengthen our graduates’ roles within their organizations and industries. For Edward this meant: The skills he obtained in the program helped him achieve an accelerated promotion to Associate Professor of Clinical Anesthesiology. In regards to classes, he thought that the applied quantitative analysis class was a very practical application of statistics. In addition, the scientific writing and professional communication seminars offered useful strategies. How he is applying what he has learned: Edward currently serves as the Chief of Regional Anesthesia and Acute Pain Medicine, an active group within the Department of Anesthesiology conducting multiple concurrent clinical trials. His administrative position requires him to coordinate the activities of six other faculty, two post-graduate clinical fellows, and residents in training at three hospitals. For his Independent Study Project: He presented the results of a clinical trial that he designed and completed within the course of the CREST/MAS program. He is using his ISP presentation and committee feedback to submit a manuscript for publication.
