Call
for Candidates for Fourth Annual Presidential Scholar

he goal of the ASA Presidential Scholar Award is to
highlight research by faculty members in anesthesiology
departments. The deadline for submissions for the 2006
award is April 15, 2006.
Zhiyi Zuo, M.D., Ph.D., from the University of Virginia,
Charlottesville, Virginia, won the third annual Presidential
Scholar Award, which was presented at the 2005 Annual
Meeting in Atlanta, Georgia.
Anesthesiologists who are within seven years of their
first appointment to a department of anesthesiology,
who are board-certified, are ASA members and who spend
at least two days a week in clinical practice are eligible
for this award. Further, nominees must be academically
accomplished with peer-reviewed publications and funded
research. Candidates should be nominated by their department
chair or by the Committee on Research after review of
the current year’s Foundation for Anesthesia Education
and Research grant applicants.
The completed application must include documentation
of the qualifications listed above; current curriculum
vitae; letters of support from the chair, two other
senior faculty and two current residents, post doctorial
students or fellows; copies of three most important
peer-reviewed publications; and a current five-year
academic plan with anticipated major contributions to
the field of anesthesiology (two-page limit).
The Committee on Research will judge the applications
and select a winner. The recipient of the fourth annual
Presidential Scholar Award will be asked to present
at the Celebration of Research program during the ASA
Annual Meeting in October 2006 in Chicago.
