note = "Funding Information: I have had the privilege of working with an outstanding group of thoracic surgeons directed by Bryan Meyers, a leader in the AATS, a section editor of The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, and a director of the American Board of Thoracic Surgery; cardiac surgeons led by Ralph Damiano, internationally recognized for his contributions to the surgical management of cardiac arrhythmia and minimally invasive cardiac surgery; congenital heart surgeons led by Dr Chuck Huddleston, recognized for his continued contribution in pediatric lung transplantation; and cardiothoracic anesthesia/critical physicians directed by Dr Michael Avidan, who has assembled a terrific group of computed tomography (CT) anesthesiologists who are members of our division and committed to our patients. Together with outstanding research faculty, this cardiothoracic division with busy clinical programs in every discipline is also responsible for grant support, including 7 R01s, 2 K08 awards, 1 training grant, 2 Small Business Innovation Research awards, and 1 award from the American Heart Association. I am lucky indeed to be part of such a productive group of talented cardiothoracic surgeons. ",
