  • Surgical Critical Care
  • Acute Care Surgery
  • Emergency Medicine/Surgical Critical Care
  • Extracorporeal Life Support
• Named Lectureships

Endowed Professorships

Professorships serve as a mark of distinction for the sharpest minds in academic medicine who are awarded them. Endowed professorships make it possible to recruit and retain outstanding teachers and researchers who inspire students and trainees, expand the frontiers of knowledge, make discoveries that change lives, provide expert care, and lead dynamic medical programs.
