Host Dr. Ryan Stanton talks to Dr. Resa Lewiss at DAS SMACC about her lecture, "FOUR TRAGIC DOG DEATHS: LESSONS IN PROGRAM DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT." "Academic programs are built on four main pillars: clinical excellence, research, education, and administration. These apply whether you build and design an u/s program or division, a simulation program, a toxicology or pre-hospital program and even an academic department. You never forget when your childhood dog dies. And I will never forget how all four of my childhood dogs died. These 4 tragic, dramatic, and traumatic experiences provided fantastic lessons on how an academic program can fail." (https://www.smacc.net.au/speaker/resa-lewiss-17/)
