Summary
- As an academic anesthesiologist, I provide high-quality anesthesia care to complex neurosurgical and trauma patients at Memorial Hermann Hospital, train future doctors and anesthesiologists at McGovern Medical School, and conduct clinical research to enhance patient outcomes.
I am deeply interested in clinical research, bioinformatics, and medical statistics, particularly using healthcare data from electronic medical records (EMR) to improve patient outcomes and add value to healthcare systems.
