The July 2020 issue of the UCSF Department of Surgery newsletter is now available. Learn about the latest developments in the department including key leadership appointments, a welcome to our newest faculty members, and our new "Message from the Chair Video." Also included are links to the many accomplishments of our faculty, residents, fellows, and medical students, including awards and honors, research grants, and appointments to positions of distinction. There is also a special section devoted to meeting the challenges of COVID-19. Finally we honor the memories of those we have lost: Evan C. Werlin, M.D., General Surgery Chief Resident and beloved colleague and friend, and F. William Blaisdell, MD, Former Chief of Surgery at SFGH and SFVA, a giant in the field of academic surgery.
