Anesthesiology Grand Rounds with the California Surgeon General

The Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative & Pain Medicine invites colleagues across the University to its Evening Edition Grand Rounds on Monday, November 16, featuring Diana E. Ramos, MD, MPH, MBA, California’s first Latina Surgeon General.

Dr. Ramos will present “Beyond the Operating Room: Adverse Childhood Experiences, Maternal Health, and the Role of Anesthesiology in Prevention.” The talk examines how adverse childhood experiences and toxic stress shape health across the lifespan — including implications for pregnancy, maternal health, and perioperative care — and reviews maternal morbidity and mortality trends and disparities in California, with attention to where prevention and early intervention can change outcomes. She will also discuss trauma-informed care and opportunities for collaboration across care settings.

A board-certified OB-GYN with more than 30 years in practice, Dr. Ramos previously led chronic disease prevention at the California Department of Public Health. Hosted by Brian Bateman, MD, MSc, MBA, The Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine Endowed Professor and Chair.

Note the early start time. Food served from 5:00 p.m.; lecture 5:15–6:00 p.m. In person at Assembly Hall, 500 Pasteur Dr. (3rd Floor Rooftop), or join by Zoom. CME credit available.
