Chad Brummett, M.D., Recipient of the 2017 James C. Cottrell, M.D., Presidential Scholar Award

WHEN I was informed that Chad Brummett would receive the 2017 American Society of Anesthesiologists Presidential Scholar Award, I was very pleased and proud but not surprised. Chad was a graduate of Indiana University (undergraduate and medical school) who chose to venture north to Michigan for residency. Chad was exceptional from the very start. Not simply by being a great resident clinically (he was elected chief resident in his senior year), but because he had a burning passion for scientific inquiry from the beginning. I would step out of my office at any time day or evening to find Chad on the phone or at the computer coordinating a research plan, talking with someone in our research laboratories, or consulting the Food and Drug Administration regarding his translational research.
