Matt Park, MSN, CRNA, joined a Rotaplast team on a two-week medical mission to Myanmar, helping children with cleft lip and palate defects. The team also cared for patients with complex wound or burn scars who needed advanced plastic surgery care.
Congratulations to faculty member Susana Vacas, MD, PhD, right, on her $1 million, five-year K23 Development Award from the NIH! Her research involves postoperative neurocognitive disorders (PCND), a significant public health problem that can lead to a cascade of complications for patients. With her mentor, Rajesh Kumar, PhD, Dr. Vacas will study high-risk patients with obstructive sleep apnea to learn more about the mechanisms of brain injury and neuroinflammation after surgery.
