Welcome to our next class of Residents! We can’t wait to get started!!!

Shout out to Dr Devasahayam, one of our Trauma/SCC attending as she discusses Blood Deserts at the ACS Committee on Trauma! @AmCollSurgeons @SanfordAlerts

Congrats to our team on this important work on Rural Surgery

#Rurality is often assumed to worsen emergency surgical outcomes, yet this study shows that when transfer systems function well, most rural patients achieve equivalent results comparable to metropolitan areas! @UNDSurgery @DrMentorA @Duncan__MD link: doi.org/10.1177/000313…

Getting festive in the SICU this month!

Congratulations to our Chairman Dr Dyke on this tremendous achievement. 👏🙌 blogs.und.edu/for-your-healt…

Perfect topic for Grand Rounds on Halloween by Dr Gerberding, one of our chiefs: “How to Not Kill People”. Excellent presentation from our inaugural SCC for next year!

Spoooooky times celebrating Halloween at work!

Late post, but here’s some of our chiefs at the ACS conference in Chicago earlier this month!

Rare picture of the chiefs together for their ATLS renewal!

Dr Elena Danielson PGY5 gives a fascinating grand rounds on the history of heart transplant. We certainly have come a long way! She'll be starting a CT fellowship next summer at @UIowa_Surgery @elena_danielson @UNDSurgery @UNDSMHS

Please join us in supporting our PGY-4 resident, Anthony Duncan in his fight against cancer. Every donation, big or small, makes a difference. gofundme.com/f/support-for-…

Snack break between cases and major traumas coming in!

Big thanks to Dr Kroetsch and his family for hosting their annual resident get-together. Great weather and better food!

Great Grand Rounds presentation today from one of our Trauma NPs, Stacy Krueger! She spoke about the importance of APP and resident collaboration. Stacy has been a wonderful part of our TRACS team for many years and is a great resource for our residents!

💯% board pass rate! Amazing residents, amazing results 👏

Reminiscing on our Graduation Banquet and missing these three chiefs… Wishing them the best!

Our PGY3s spend the weekend in Chicago for the ACS Residents as Teachers and Leaders conference.
