Today we have the distinct pleasure to welcome Neill Adhikari, MDCM, M.Sc., one of the world’s experts on critical care management in resource limited settings. Dr Adhikari is currently practicing as an intensivist at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in the Interdepartmental Division of Critical Care at the University of Toronto. He also acts as an Associate scientist, Evaluative Clinical Sciences, Trauma, Emergency & Critical Care Research Program, at the Sunnybrook Research Institute where he focuses on critical care delivery in low-resource settings. Over his brief academic career Dr. Adhikari has been incredibly prolific in academic production, publishing over 180 peer-reviewed journal articles and accepting speaking engagements from around the globe. This afternoon we were fortunate to lure him down from Canada to speak on an exceedingly important topic: how can we address the devastation of sepsis in areas of the world where basic labs and clean water can often be a luxury and not a guarantee?
