Jackie Jian, DO
Secretary Guthrie Clinic Robert Packer Hospital
Candidate Statement
My name is Jackie Jian and I am running for the position of secretary for AEUS. I am currently an assistant professor at Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine, the emergency department ultrasound director at Guthrie Clinic Robert Packer Hospital, and core faculty for the emergency medicine residency. I finished my EUS fellowship at NYP-Brooklyn Methodist in 2023 and I obtained my AEMUS-FPD status in 2024.
My first exposure to SAEM and AEUS began with Sonogames in my third year of residency in 2021. I was able to appreciate AEUS’s dedication to its educational mission despite the difficulties of organizing a virtual competition due to the COVID19 pandemic. Invigorated with the gamification of learning, my team and I won 1st place in Sonogames 2022 and I have been involved as a station moderator since then.
I am running for secretary at AEUS to specifically contribute to its mission of resident education and outreach to increase the amount of members in AEUS. There are potential members among non-fellowship trained physicians who may be intimidated to join a community of stellar but ultra specialized ultrasound clinicians. I also want to focus on how to best assess our resident learners; while there is the SDOT model to assess image acquisition, there is no standardized assessment of their ultrasound interpretation skills. I believe AEUS is the perfect community to establish these guidelines and to write the exam.
