At the September CCM Faculty Meeting, Dr. Patrick Kochanek as Director of The Safar Center for Resuscitation Research (SCRR) announced the publication of the annual (2006/2007) SCRR Report. This colorful documentation of faculty and student research activities, grants, publications, international presentations and lectures can be viewed on the SCRR website <www.safar.pitt.edu>. Beginning with a letter from the Director, next follows presentation of new grants, awards and other accomplishments by trainees and faculty members. Special events included a February 15, 2007 presentation of a new documentary of the Freedom House Ambulance Project, which was initiated in the late 1960s by the SCRR Founder, the late Dr. Peter Safar, honored each year at the annual Safar Symposium with the fifth such event on May 31, 2007. Two guest professors were invited to lecture in 2007, Dr. David Meaney of Philadelphia presenting  new findings in Traumatic Brain Injury research, and Dr. Sten Rubertsson of Uppsala Sweden, who discussed the Scandinavian experience with use of hypothermia after cardiac arrest. During academic year 06/07, SCRR investigators had 29 active grants, totaling over $21M. Specific research activities were presented, such as neuroprotective therapies in TBI (Dr. Bales), oxidative damage to the mitochondria after brain injury (Drs. Bayir and Kagan), therapeutic hypothermia (Dr. Callaway), pediatric cardiac arrest (Drs. Clark, Bayir, Manole and Fink), new biomarker in pediatric TBI and CA (Dr. Berger), emergency preservation after exsanguination cardiac arrest (Dr. Tisherman), blast induced brain injury (Dr. Kochanek). Dr. David Gaba of Stanford University was the 2007 Safar lecturer discussing simulation in medical training. This fascinating report concluded with a list of 55 peer review papers published or completed during the 06/07 academic year. Congratulations to Dr. Kochanek, his faculty and staff, for their most successful activities at SCRR.
