Yusuke Kishimoto, MD
Member-at-Large University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences
Candidate Statement
Hello! My name is Yusuke Kishimoto, PGY3 chief resident at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS), and I am running for AEUS Executive Committee’s Member-at-Large position.
As immediate-past Resident Representative on the AEUS Executive Committee, I have had the privilege to witness how our Academy nurtures and strengthen both medical education and community growth within our specialty. My goal as an At-Large Board Member is to help AEUS continues to grow as central hub for access to high-quality ultrasound education, mentorship pipelines, and support for innovation in ultrasound scholarship.
My leadership experiences across multiple national organization have centered on bridging medical students and residents with academic and advocacy opportunities. As American Academy of Emergency Medicine Resident and Student Associated (AAEM/RSA) at-large Board Member, I have worked on initiatives that connect advocacy and education including serving as liaison to the Health Policy in Emergency Medicine (HPEM) Symposium and resource creation of Advanced Ultrasound Guide and Procedure Manual pocketbooks. Within the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP), I served as Arkansas’ representative as council member for ACEP Council to vote on resolutions that affect our nation’s EM practice and guidelines as well as nominated Arkansas ACEP resident of the year.
Within AEUS, I have contributed on initiatives aimed at expanding membership recruitment and engagement, promoting ultrasound scholarship, and longitudinal project development. I hope to continue this work during my ultrasound fellowship next year by supporting collaborative educational content online and in-person. My first term serving on the AEUS Committee I had much to learn and navigate through, but through my continued mentorship and guidance under the leaders of this Academy I plan to tackle projects of my own in fostering education, community growth, and advancing excellence in emergency ultrasound.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
