Liang Liu, MD
President-Elect Emory University
Candidate Statement
I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Emergency Medicine and the Ultrasound Fellowship Director at Emory University. I completed my residency and fellowship training at Parkland Health & Hospital System in Dallas, TX . I am fellowship trained in Emergency Disaster and Global Health (EDGH) and Emergency Ultrasound. Since fellowship I have been an active member of and served leadership positions within several national ultrasound organizations. Specific to AEUS, I have served previously as the immediate-past treasurer of AEUS and am continuing to work with AEUS on several initiatives including the Narrated Lecture Series, the medical student awards committee, and as a member of the Sonogames Executive Planning Committee.
As a member of AEUS, I have directly benefited from the resources provided by the Academy. I have seen the organization’s active role in promoting educational and research initiatives that advance the field of ultrasound. Through my involvement with SAEM, I have been granted the opportunity to see the inner workings of the academy and the organization as a whole. This has equipped me with the skills, institutional knowledge and mentorship needed to step into the role of president-elect for AEUS. As president, I hope to further AEUS’s research and educational missions and continue the work that has been started: expand our educational offerings, make content more accessible to the community, build opportunities to engage and promote members, and find ways that we can work with other academies and interest groups within SAEM to further our shared missions.
