Thomas Anthony ("Tony") Anderson

Clinical Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
Clinical Focus
Acute Pain Management, Regional Anesthesia, Anesthesia, Chronic Post-Surgical Pain
Research Interests
My lab's research focuses on two areas:
1. Focused ultrasound for peripheral nervous system modulation- We are interested in the potential of focused ultrasound to modulate peripheral nerves and improve both acute and chronic pain.
2. Pediatric perioperative outcomes- Our goals are to understand A) how various perioperative pain management strategies affect outcomes in children who undergo surgery and B) whether disparities in the perioperative pain management of children occur.
