Nearly three years ago, the 91小黄车 launched the Alliance Research Initiative to promote collaboration and mentorship through interdisciplinary research teams. With members spanning across UK departments and colleges, these teams were established to address Kentucky鈥檚 most urgent health needs.

The 91小黄车 is pleased to announce the faculty, staff, and learners who were winners of the annual Mission, Vision, Pillar, and Enabler Awards.

To enable the 91小黄车 to succeed in its mission for a healthier Kentucky, leadership must prioritize the wellness and well-being of faculty, staff, and learners. Lisa Williams, MSSA, is serving in the college鈥檚 new leadership position, associate dean for wellness and well-being, to help us excel in this goal.

Fortunately for doctors and patients, advancements in medicine and health care have led to fewer medical emergencies; however, for anesthesiologists in training, this also means a reduced number of cases that help them develop proficiency in their field.
