Prescription for Sustainability: Clinicians Leading the Charge Towards Greener Healthcare

This month, we are excited to feature the incredible work being led by Dr. Angelelli from our department (UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh) and other UPMC clinicians to tackle the challenge of climate change and contribute to making our healthcare system greener and more sustainable for the future.

Elevating the Medical Student Experience: Anatomy, Ultrasound, and Regional Anesthesia Elective

Every academic year, we proudly offer a unique opportunity to first and second year PittMed students: the Anatomy, Ultrasound, and Regional Anesthesia elective, or "Personal Enrichment Course" (PEC). Designed for those with a keen interest in anatomy, ultrasound technology, and regional anesthesia, this elective encapsulates the essence of interdisciplinary learning and early clinical exposure.

Integral to the success of the elective are the contributions of our dedicated residents. Despite their demanding clinical schedules, residents generously volunteer their time and expertise at the end of long clinical days to mentor students, bridging the gap between theoretical learning and real-world practice.

2024 Match Brings Twenty-Two Top Students to Our Residency Program

We are thrilled to announce our 2024 UPMC Anesthesiology Residency Program match results! We matched 22 top students (15 categorical and three advanced residents; three Panther Research Scholars; and one Combined Anesthesiology/Pediatrics resident) from the 1,880 candidates who applied to our program. These incoming residents hail from a variety of locations across the country and represent a vast range of incredible experience, talents, and interests.
