Committees

FAER Committees are composed of dedicated volunteer members who are anesthesiologists and other professionals who are committed to advancing innovation and scientific discovery in our specialty.
    

Development Committee

FAER is working to ensure that research and innovation remain the bedrock foundation of our specialty. We are pursuing many research and education funding opportunities. Our Development Committee is the leader in these efforts. The volunteer members of the FAER Development Committee join members of the FAER Board to share ideas and advocate for the Foundation to their peers.
