Abstract

Surgeons in the US are trained to be leaders during their surgical residencies as part of their postgraduate education. Leadership is considered to be essential, since the surgeon directs the medical team. Every surgeon is expected to gain leadership skills. I would like to introduce the leadership training that I received as an ASCO Leadership Development Program graduate and as a Scholarship recipient of Geisel Leadership Course at Dartmouth in addition to General Surgery Residency at University of California San Diego. I will also present our research on Precision Medicine.
