NOTE: Applications to present at Swimming with Sharks are open through July 31, 2022. Visit FAER.org/Sharks to apply.
Anesthesiology has a long history of innovation, entrepreneurship, and close interactions between academicians, private practitioners, and industry to bring new concepts to the clinical arena and better care for our patients. Using an entertaining format of Shark Tank™, this session will present anesthesiologists with ideas for innovations to a panel of experts involved in developing such innovations to market in order to educate the audience regarding the multiple steps involved in the process and provide resources for those who hope to advance the practice through innovation.
There will be two Swimming with Sharks sessions at the event: one for very early-stage startups (back of the napkin ideas/conceptual/pre-seed stage) and one for startups that are seed stage and beyond (ie series A).
22nd Annual FAER-Helrich Research Lecture: The Central Importance of Patient Centeredness in Perioperative Research
Sunday, October 23 | 1:15 – 2:15 p.m. CT | New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, Rivergate Room
Lecturer: Michael S. Avidan, MBBCh, FCA SA
The FAER-Helrich Research Lecture recognizes outstanding scholarship by a scientist and is part of FAER’s ongoing effort to encourage early career anesthesiologists and trainees to consider careers in research and teaching.
Choosing a drug mechanism/technique which will render one unconscious is an extremely consequential decision. Currently this decision is taken completely out of the hands of patients and all agency for this choice is assumed by anesthesiologists or other anesthesia clinician. Where there is any shared decision making, it is possible that those least likely to be given the opportunity to express their preference regarding this choice are those who do not have a voice in society.
Learning objectives for this lecture include the ability to:

Lead Speaker: Mark D. Neuman, MC, MSc
Topics and Speakers:
Multicenter clinical trials and prospective cohort studies focusing on patient-centered outcomes after surgery and other common procedures have potential to increase the value of anesthesia care and transform the scope and impact of anesthesiology as a specialty. To support the ability of anesthesiologists to improve patient outcomes and contribute to public health through collaborative multicenter trials and prospective cohort studies, this panel will highlight the Anesthesia Research Council working group's efforts to benchmark anesthesiology against other specialties and ultimately improve our infrastructure to support large scale networks. This ARC-sponsored session will address several outstanding topics relevant to patient centered clinical outcomes research in Anesthesiology. Some examples include:

The FAER Medical Student and Resident Research Symposium brings together FAER sponsored medical students and residents to present their research projects conducted in anesthesiology departments across the nation. Medical students have been directly supported by FAER for a summer-long research experience at their own or another medical university and both students are residents are required to present scholarly activity projects with strong preference for original research. Students and residents will be together for more effective networking and mentoring opportunities among young trainees in order to better expose them to major research topics in advancing the field of anesthesiology.
