In 2021, Johns Hopkins ACCM launched the Visiting Professor Exchange to sponsor faculty in delivering and attending virtual lectures across multiple institutions. The program has seen tremendous success. Faculty are encouraged to speak in any scholarly area, including clinical practice, education, research, diversity, safety, and other topics. Speakers are encouraged to develop the lecture with a mentor’s guidance, practice the lecture in advance with peers, and obtain feedback on their slides.

Disseminating scholarly work is essential to advancing medicine. It always will be. By expanding opportunities for faculty to disseminate their work, the Visiting Professor Exchange benefits the audience, the speakers, and institutions as a whole. Our goals are to advance academic anesthesiology, promote career advancement, and shape the field of medicine. Visiting lectureships spark new collaborations, foster opportunities, and advance projects. Speakers gain national recognition for their work, a key piece to promotion, and often receive invitations to speak at additional venues.

If you are interested in participating in the Visiting Professor Exchange or if you can assist with fostering connections with new institutions, email Dr. Jenny Lee ([email protected]).

Dr. Ian Molyneaux is a native of the beautiful Caribbean Island of Jamaica. His journey into medicine was really a chance encounter when the University of The West Indies in his home country sent out scholarship examinations for prospective students while he was in high school. He was offered a spot in their medical school after scoring well in the science portions of those examinations and review of his volunteer work in state children’s homes. He finished medical school in 2006, graduating with a degree in Basic Medical Sciences with honors in addition to his medical school degree. He then finished training as a general practitioner in Jamaica and from 2010-2013 he had the interesting and challenging job of being a ship’s doctor for a major cruise line.

He had always wanted to pursue a career in anesthesiology and so in 2013, he gave up his sailor’s uniform and went on to be accepted into the Howard University Hospital Preliminary Medicine Residency in Washington, D.C. From there he tackled the challenge of gaining a spot in an anesthesiology residency. From 2015-2018, he was an anesthesiology resident at the MetroHealth Medical Center, Case Western Reserve University Program, in Cleveland, Ohio. This program is the busiest level 1 trauma program in Northeast Ohio.

After successfully completing residency, he then completed a fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation in Critical Care Anesthesiology. He is now faculty at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center practicing out of Regional One Health Medical Center in Memphis, Tennessee, one of the busiest trauma centers in the United States with over 4500 level 1 trauma activations per year.
