"How to Give"

Sincere thanks to our supporters and donors

KS

Each year the Section of Surgical Sciences receives  generous contributions that provide clinical research, scientific and device discovery and advanced education for our trainees. Support from individuals, grateful patients, alumni and foundations are critical to advancing the mission of the Section of Surgical Sciences in patient care, research and clinical training. I want to express my sincere gratitude to all of the generous donors who have contributed to the success of the Section of Surgical Sciences.

These gifts enable us to continue making advances in patient care, to improve the safety of surgical treatment and to improve the short and long-term outcomes of surgical care. The donations also enable our surgical departments to offer the very best in surgical education and training to develop the next generation of outstanding surgical leaders.
