Dr. Quincy Tran Honored Selected as Laerdal Lecturer by Top Critical Care Society

This week, the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) selected Professor Quincy Tran, MD, PhD, as the 2026 recipient of the Asmund S. Laerdal Memorial Lecture Award.

The lecture honors Asmund S. Laerdal, who created the manikans used in CPR training procedures. SCCM selects award recipients based on critical care research and publishing—particularly resuscitation research.

Dr. Tran will present the Laerdal Memorial Lecture on March 24 at the SCCM Critical Care Congress in Chicago, Illinois.

Please join us in congratulating Dr. Tran on this impressive achievement!
