Youyou Duanmu, MD, MPH

Hi, my name is Youyou Duanmu, Clinical Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine and Co-Director of the ultrasound fellowship at Stanford University. After attending medical school at the Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons and emergency medicine residency at Mount Sinai Beth Israel, I completed an ultrasound fellowship at Brigham and Women’s Hospital as well as an MPH at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. I have been an active member of SAEM for 12 years and have been heavily involved in AEUS for a decade, including serving on the Executive Committee as Research Officer for the past two years, designing a Sonogames Round 2 station, being a grant writing mentor, presenting the recurring Wavemakers didactic, and receiving an AEUS SAEMF research grant. I have also collaborated with other POCUS experts from across the country on ultrasound focused publications, presentations, awards, lectures, and panel discussions.

I would be honored to serve as President of AEUS and to be an advocate for our members in promoting POCUS within SAEM, emergency medicine and the wider medical community. With my experience working in both AEUS and other SAEM leadership committee roles, I am prepared to uphold and grow the mission of our Academy. As President, I would ensure the voice of our membership is heard, especially in national discussions of policy that could affect the standing of POCUS training and practice. I aim to continue promoting collaborations between members from diverse regional and academic backgrounds by fostering new mentorship programs, didactic and grant submission support, and expanding our educational offerings such as the Narrated Lecture Series. I would also like to build additional inter-society programming with groups such as ACEP and SCUF. Thank you for your consideration!
