Department of Anesthesiology

The Department of Anesthesia, founded in 1968, quickly established itself as a national leader in academics as well as clinical anesthesiology and resident education. Over the past four decades, we have grown dramatically both in the volume and scope of anesthetic practice. That growth saw a concurrent expansion of both medical education programs and research activities in the basic, translational and clinical realms.

Patient Care

The primary venue for the department's clinical activities is Yale-New Haven Hospital. We administer care in more than 45 clinical locations, including inpatient and ambulatory operating rooms, the maternity ward, the Surgical Intensive Care and Cardiothoracic Intensive Care units, YNHH’s preadmission testing center and the perioperative pain service.more...

Education & Training

Our residency training program, comprised of 57 residents, has recently been enhanced by the development of the Yale Resident Research Scholar Program, which gives chosen residents a chance to start a research career during their traditional residency training. In addition, we offer fellowships in cardiac anesthesia, neuroansthesia, obstetrical anesthesia, pediatric anesthesia, critical care, ambulatory anesthesia and regional anesthesia.more...

Anesthesia Research

Our research program encompasses clinical, translational and basic areas of investigation in an environment that supports collaboration both intra- and interdepartmentally. The focus is on cellular and molecular biology, tissue engineering and clinical research on a range of topics. more...
