Director of Emergency Ultrasound, Director of EM Clerkship, Associate Professor of EM

Columbia University Medical Center

Dr. Das obtained her medical degree from Drexel University College of Medicine (2007), completed her Emergency Medicine residency, where she was Chief Resident (2010), and a fellowship in Emergency Ultrasound at New York-Presbyterian Queens (2011). She was then Associate Director of Emergency Ultrasound and the Emergency Ultrasound Fellowship Director at Northwell Health - Staten Island University Hospital from 2011-2018. She has been faculty with the Columbia University Department of Emergency Medicine since 2019, where she is currently an Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine at CUIMC (2020) and holds leadership roles as the Director of the Emergency Ultrasound Division and Director of the MCY Emergency Medicine Clerkship. She has held the positions of President, Secretary, and VP of Membership & Engagement for AWAEM. 

Yale University

I am currently a PGY4 resident at RIH/Brown Emergency Medicine and will be pursuing a simulation fellowship at Yale for the 2022-2023 year. My active involvement in simulation has led me to understand the important role simulation plays in emergency medicine training, improving our ability to provide care and respond appropriately in a crisis scenario. I have been a member of SAEM during my residency time and believe that I would be a valuable addition to the academy executive committee. As a resident, I have designed and implemented simulations for team leader roles in resuscitation, currently serve as a clinical instruction for Brown Medical School’s doctoring course, have collaborated on education projects with EM-RAP, and have been actively engaged in research. My particular goals are to increase resident and medical student involvement with Simulation through collaboration with the education and social media and membership committees. I also hope to improve access to mentorship and simulation research opportunities for learners at all training levels.

Weill Cornell Medicine, Department of Emergency Medicine

I am presently a simulation and medical education fellow at Weill Cornell Medical Center, where I also practice as an EM attending physician. I am a graduate of Harvard (BA in Philosophy), NYU (MA in Literature), and I spent close to a decade prior to medicine working as a tenured high school English teacher. I received my medical degree from Weill Cornell Medical College in 2017, and I completed my residency training at NewYork-Presbyterian Columbia/Cornell, where I served as the educational chief resident. Since then, I have completed the ACEP Residency Teaching Fellowship, am presently enrolled in the 2022-2023 SAEM ARMED MedED Program, and was the SAEM Simulation Academy’s Scholarship recipient for the same. I have been a member of SAEM since 2014.

I am applying for the fellowship position on the Simulation Academy Executive Committee. As my prior career experience would suggest, I am an educator first and foremost, and I was drawn to Simulation because of its power as a pedagogical modality. Through my fellowship, however, I have further realized the critical importance of Simulation to all facets of healthcare. In joining the Committee, my hope is that I can advocate for (in particular) simulation trainees new to the field, at the same time as I learn from experienced Simulation leaders how to advance the discipline in the years ahead.

University of Mississippi Medical Center

I’m currently completing a fellowship in simulation at UMMC and have a particular interest in growing the footprint of medical simulation within the traditional classroom space. Dedicated simulation centers are tremendous drivers of the quality, immersive education that simulation offers. Along that vein, I’d like to find better ways to grow the use of simulation outside of the dedicated simulation space. I believe that the traditional classroom and lecture hall is a ripe space for simulation training under models such as flipped classroom learning. Virtual simulation is a useful tool for delivering simulation training into spaces beyond our dedicated simulation centers and remains an untapped resource as a PowerPoint alternative to the traditional lecture. I’d like to become involved in the leadership ranks of the SAEM Simulation Academy to promote the utilization of simulation in this and many other spheres within emergency medicine training. Participation as a Vice President of education offers a wonderful opportunity to achieve this goal.

Saint Louis University

I am emergency medicine faculty at Saint Louis University and the director for simulation for the EM residency, as well as the assistant dean of simulation for the School of Medicine. These roles have allowed me broad experience in designing and implementing high-yield simulation curriculum for clinicians at various stages of training, from the first day of medical school to seasoned staff.

I was elected member-at-large for the SAEM Simulation Academy for 2020 to 2022. During this term, I've served as Lead for the Education Subcommittee. I’m running for Vice President of Education to continue building a robust community of faculty who are passionate about simulation education and interested in pursuing collaborative projects with each other.
