Welcome to this page, which provides information on the Annual Fund for Anesthesia Resident Education of the Department of Anesthesiology at Wake Forest University School of Medicine.
Our anesthesiology residency program has been recognized for some time as a source of outstanding clinical and academic physicians. However, some of the attributes that have made our program so successful in the past are now being threatened by financial constraints. These challenges to academic anesthesia notwithstanding, efforts like this fund can help keep our residency program strong.

Contributions Dedicated to the Residency Program |
Annual tax-deductible contributions to this ongoing campaign will help sustain resident education efforts such as |
· travel to meetings (e.g., the Gulf-Atlantic Anesthesia Resident's Research Conference) | · purchases of educational materials | · the CA-2 retreat | · the Patient Simulation Laboratory | · the Visiting Professor program |
| 
Nathan Pailes, Daniel d’Hulst, Dr. Olympio, Brittany Clyne, and Brian Grace at the 2004 Gulf Atlantic Conference.

| Under institutional agreement, this will be a protected fund, from which the Department will dispense money each year solely to support our residency program. Any leftover amount at the end of a year will go into an existing endowment for residency education, which is also protected. A portion of the interest earned each year from this endowment account, approximately 5% of the principal as governed by university rules, will be designated to support the Department's Visiting Professor series and resident teaching and research projects. |
