Por qué me encanta enseñar
Soy profesor asociado de Medicina de Emergencias en la universidad de Tufts, director médico y director de ecografía en el punto de atención en el Maine Medical Center en Portland, donde dirijo el programa de ecografía de emergencias. Mi investigación se centra en el uso de la ecografía en resucitación y salud global, y formo parte del consejo de directores de PURE (Ecografía en el punto de atención en entornos con recursos limitados). Tengo una gran pasión por enseñar el poder de la ecografía en el punto de atención.
