She will serve a one-year term through October 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m proud to represent the anesthesia profession on the national stage,\u201d Dr. Goeller said. \u201cAs the first board-certified pediatric anesthesiologist and full professor at UNMC who is an osteopathic physician, it\u2019s an honor to serve in a role that reflects both my professional roots and the strength of our department\u2019s national presence.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AOCA was founded in 1952 to support osteopathic anesthesiologists through education, advocacy and community-building. While it was founded within the osteopathic tradition, Dr. Goeller notes that its meetings and membership are inclusive of both MDs and DOs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As president, Dr. Goeller said her priorities center on advancing education, mentorship and technology within the field of anesthesiology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur future depends on investing in the next generation of anesthesiologists,\u201d she said. \u201cMedical students, residents and early-career physicians deserve meaningful opportunities to learn, grow and contribute. AOCA is creating dedicated interest groups and forums for them, places to engage, ask questions and shape their careers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>-Sarah Hankin, UNMC strategic communications&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"678\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Joshua-Mammen-MD-1024x678.jpg\" alt=\"Joshua Mammen, MD\" class=\"wp-image-114756\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Joshua-Mammen-MD-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Joshua-Mammen-MD-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Joshua-Mammen-MD-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Joshua-Mammen-MD-1536x1017.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/Joshua-Mammen-MD-2048x1356.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Joshua Mammen, MD<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dr. Mammen leads national effort on SurgeonsPAC Board<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Joshua Mammen, MD, PhD, chief of surgical oncology at UNMC and physician-in-chief of the National Cancer Institute-designated Fred &amp; Pamela Buffett Cancer Center, is nearing the end of his first year as chair of the American College of Surgeons Professional Association\u2019s SurgeonsPAC Board.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The American College of Surgeons plays a vital role in today\u2019s health care landscape, improving surgical care and safeguarding ethical standards.
