The UW Department of Anesthesiology actively supports resident involvement in global health. A number of our faculty are active in overseas medicine in the developing world and provide mentorship and opportunities for many residents to gain overseas experience during their training.<br/><br/>In the CA3 year the Department funds a 1-4 week ‘elective’ time for residents to explore various training opportunities. Residents may use vacation/meeting time or apply for Accredited Resident Rotation time.<br/><br/>Examples of resident global health experiences in recent years include:<br/>
