Stanford Emergency Medicine is dedicated to transforming healthcare for all by leading in the advancement of emergency medicine through innovation and scientific discovery.  We have a strong focus on precision emergency medicine - the use of information and technology to improve the care of individual patients and their communities.  Key areas of focus include optimizing access to care; capitalizing on technology and digital health tools; leveraging human-centered data to individualize treatment decisions; advancing population and global health; and redesigning medical education.  Of particular interest are candidates who have experience in health innovation and information technology to advance and optimize the delivery of emergency care.

The Section Chief of Ultrasound will serve as our departmental leader in ultrasound, supporting the operational, educational, and administrative missions, as well as interdepartmental point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) projects, and research and scholarship in ultrasound to facilitate the ongoing academic productivity and success of our ultrasound section.  In addition, this position will serve as Co-Director of the Stanford Hospital and Clinics POCUS enterprise initiative. 

Clinical responsibilities will include patient care in the emergency department at Stanford Hospital, a world-renowned, academic medical center with approximately 90,000 adult Emergency Department visits annually.  Our faculty consists of over 100 board-certified emergency physicians with broad scholarly interests and extramural funding.  We sponsor 13 fellowship programs, a four-year residency program, required and advanced student clerkships, and several courses available to learners throughout our university.
