Today marked our graduation of the Leadership in Academic Medicine Program (LAMP) at the Indiana University School of Medicine. It’s been an incredible year of learning, enrichment, and growth for all of us. Truly an honor to meet Dean Jay L. Hess M.D. Ph.D. M.H.S.A..

Thank you to everyone in my cohort as well as Dr. Laura Torbeck and Dr. Gabriel Bosslet for putting so much wind in the sails for the next steps in our journey in academic medicine! #LAMP #IUSM

2005: “It’s all crystalloids.”
2010: “No, 1:1:1 is the holy grail.”
2015: “TXA for everyone.”
2018: “Whole blood back to the future.”
2020: “It’s the endothelium!”
2023: “AI will solve resuscitation.”
2025: “Actually… it’s the platelets.”

Funny how the more we learn, the smaller the battlefield becomes
and all roads keep leading back to surgeon scientists who still practice clinical medicines

Honored to receive the @APSASurgeons James Densler Award, named for the 1st African American pediatric surgeon.

Five years ago, he told me: “Excellence & equity are not competing goals.”

Those words still guide my work #SavingLifetimes for all children. His legacy lives #APSA25

[Elliott R Haut, MD, PhD, MAMSE @elliotthaut]

The entire field of #AcuteCareSurgery is understaffed. Thanks @pbatesmurphy for your insightful data at #EAST2025. We are at a critical crossroads. We need to change our staffing four our patients, and for our own wellness.
