This year we are delighted to have Jeffrey B. Cooper, PhD as our keynote speaker. His address is titled: The Fruits of Collaboration: Patient Safety, Simulation, Teachers, Relationships. Dr. Jeffrey B. Cooper will share personal reflections on a fruitful 44 years in patient safety and the generative 25-year alliance between simulation faculty at Stanford and Harvard Medical Schools. He will describe the critical role of teachers and faculty development in using simulation to address patient safety challenges and particularly for speaking up about patient safety concerns and the giving and receiving of feedback.

About Jeffrey B. Cooper, Ph.D.
Jeffrey B. Cooper, Ph.D. is the founder and Executive Director of the Center for Medical
Simulation, which is dedicated to the use of simulation in healthcare as a means to improve the process of education and training and to avoid risk to patients. He is also Professor of
Anesthesia at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital.  

One of the pioneers in what is now called patient safety, Dr. Cooper did landmark research in medical errors in the 1970’s, is a co-founder of the Anaesthesia Patient Safety Foundation (APSF) and on the Board of Advisors of the National Patient Safety Foundation.  

Dr. Cooper has been awarded several honors for his work in patient safety, including the 2003 John M. Eisenberg Award for Lifetime Achievement in Patient Safety from the National Quality Forum and the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations and the 2004 Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Academy of Clinical Engineering. The Department of Anesthesia and Critical Care of the MGH established the Jeffrey B. Cooper Patient Safety award in his honor. He received the Distinguished Service Award of the American Society of Anesthesiologists in 2013, the first non-MD to receive the honor. In 2014, he was awarded the JS Gravenstein Award for lifetime achievement by the Society for Technology in Anesthesia.
