Clinical and Health Services Research Committee Self Nomination for Jennifer Whittington

Serving on the Publications Committee for the Association of Academic Surgery has been one of the most fulfilling academic commitments I have had the privilege of enjoying over the past year and a half. In this role I have had the opportunity to review abstracts and manuscripts submitted to Journal of Surgical Research. I am proud that I have provided thorough and thoughtful reviews in a timely manner. During this time I have continue to serve as the Director of Surgical Research at our hospital and continue to work with our translational science research associates and post- doctoral trainees in completing translational projects and grants. I believe these roles of service have prepared me well to serve on the AAS Basic and Translational Sciences Committee as well as the Clinical and Health Services Committee. I intend to focus on the goals of promoting the representation of well designed and well performed research reviewed by the AAS. Furthermore, I would be dedicated to selecting projects and programs that would be supported by the AAS at the annual meeting. It would be a privilege and an honor to serve with either of these committees and I have the requisite skills and time to be an effective and productive member of each of these committees.
