Moore-Bridenbaugh Anesthesia Research Fellowship

Program Summary

Virginia Mason's section of Anesthesiology offers a one-year anesthesia research fellowship program under the leadership and supervision of Fellowship Director David Auyong, MD, along with an outstanding team.

The purpose of the fellowship is to help ensure the vitality and quality of anesthesia care around the world by supporting fellows interested in performing meaningful, supervised research and engaging in scholarly activities as they prepare to pursue roles in academic anesthesia medicine. As fellows participate in valuable research and clinical experience under the guidance and mentorship of expert faculty members, they gain new insights and collaborate with physician-scientists to generate new knowledge, with the aim of using the fellowship year as a springboard for a future academic and clinical career.

This opportunity focuses on graduates of anesthesiology residency programs who are board-certified or board-eligible anesthesiologists interested in participating in clinical or bench research without limitation to any particular subspecialty in anesthesiology.

Curriculum

  1. Perform meaningful, supervised research and engage in scholarly activities.
  2. Learn a multidisciplinary team approach to medical research and serve as a valued and important contributor to the team.
  3. For clinical studies, examine records from a population of patients in the context of a high-volume anesthesia service, both outpatient and inpatient.
