The annual award honors one educator who has made longstanding, meaningful contributions to anesthesia education and clinical practice. Dr. Benumof has dedicated his career to improving airway management. The IARS awarded $10,000 to UCSD School of Medicine, which will be used to further the school’s airway management education program, according to the report.
In addition, all anesthesia residents at UCSD will receive complimentary memberships to IARS, including full-year subscriptions to the society’s journal, Anesthesia & Analgesia.
