The members look forward to continuing their conversations at the spring 2023 meeting of The Texas Surgical Society, which will be held in Tyler.

Jong Lee, M.D., a 21-year veteran of caring for children with acute burns at Shriners Children’s Texas, has been named the hospital’s chief of staff for burns and the Jim and Susan Clawson Endowed Chair.

Drs. El Ayadi and Jay plan to examine the safety of topically-applied, multi-dosed RBS over the wound healing periods of inflammation and cellular proliferation, determine the efficacy of RBS in a pre-clinical model of wound healing, and elucidate a spatiotemporal immune activation signature over wound healing time in a large animal model of burn and full-thickness cutaneous trauma.

The live, grant-funded production included many stages of a real-life scenario on drinking/drugged driving by including a staged car accident, transport to the hospital, jail, and death. Many thanks to Trauma Services and The Center for Addiction Research for coordinating this successful event.

Congratulations, Graduates!
