Lynn Roppolo, MD

I’m a recently retired Professor of EM from the University of Texas Southwestern (UTSW) and now the Assistant Ultrasound Director at John Peter Smith Hospital. At UTSW, I did about 50 research studies, coordinated summer research programs and the “Shark Tank”. Some US activities include SAEMMIES judge, AEUS research resources webpage, research related articles for the ACEP US section, involved in Delphi study to improve US research reporting, and the steering committee for Probing the Literature. I am involved in SAEM’s Research Learning Series and Senior Editor for the Journal of Emergency Medicine. I am very excited and so grateful to be the recipient of this year's AEUS SAEMF research grant and looking forward to completing our multi-institutional study to determine longitudinal learning curves for the eFAST ultrasound exam. As AEUS Research Officer, I have several ideas for improving and expanding upon the resources that already exist and increasing research collaboration.
