Program for the Advancement of Surgical Equity

Props to soon-to-be cardiac surgeon @obieze_nwanna_n on his @HSRatBMC pub assessing cost-effectiveness of surgical care in Uganda!

#AASChat - GLOBAL SURGERY – Question 4: Do you have any tips or tricks for obtaining funding for global surgery research?

@AcademicSurgery Partners should have their priorities front and center from the start. They should co-own the successes (grants, publications, presentation) #AASChat

@AcademicSurgery Great partners are the key to project sustainability! They should be involved throughout: project design, data collection, drafting, and sharing in the success of publications, grants, and awards!

#AASChat - GLOBAL SURGERY – Question 1: How do you build a sustainable global surgery project?

Join your @pase_UCLA team this Wednesday at 5pm for the @AcademicSurgery #AASChat! @cjuillard @SArianeChristie and @JRookMD will be answering questions on Global Surgery.
