Anesthesia resident Dr. Connor Brenna has been named the recipient of the 2024 Ontario's Anesthesiologists Resident Award. The award recognizes anesthesia residents in Ontario for their outstanding contributions to education, leadership, and advocacy within and beyond the field of anesthesiology.

Brenna was nominated by his colleagues, who highlighted his exemplary service and leadership as a resident, notably his involvement in Ontario’s Anesthesiologists’ Environmental Sustainability Working Group.

The award will be presented next month during the organization’s virtual Transition-to-Practice event.

The Department of Anesthesiology & Pain Medicine extends heartfelt congratulations to Dr. Brenna on this well-deserved recognition.
