Director of Education
Joe-Ann Moser, MD MS
University of Wisconsin - Madison | Madison, WI
Hello, my name is Joe-Ann Moser. Some of you may know me as the “Carmen San Diego” host of the 2022 Quiz Show. Behind the scenes, I am also the Immediate Past Chair of EMRA’s Education Committee. And I hope to serve as your next EMRA Director of Education. Currently, I am the Medical Education Fellow at the University of Wisconsin. As a fellow, I have the time needed to fully commit myself to effectively contributing to the EMRA Board of Directors.
After serving in an EMRA leadership role over the past two years, I have prior experience with the Director of Education’s formal responsibilities. This makes me well-prepared to be a knowledgeable and productive member of the board.
Emergency Medicine is a fast-paced specialty where we see patients with a myriad of chief complaints. This is a great environment to work in but can sometimes make it more difficult to learn. If elected, I will do everything in my power to successfully advocate for you and your education on a national level.
I would be honored to serve as your next EMRA Director of Education! Thank you so much for your consideration.

Excellent candidates may be considering a future leadership role in academic medicine such as program or clerkship directorship, and should have an understanding of the ACGME competencies, curriculum design, educational assessment, and educational research. The Director of Education also has a pivotal role in mentorship to the Medical Student Council, and helps to foster relationships between residents and medical students on a national level.

Case Report: Managing a Left-sided Tension Pneumothorax with Patient History of Remote Right Pneumonectomy
The leading cause of iatrogenic pneumothorax is transthoracic needle aspiration. In our case, however, pneumothorax was most likely due to transbronchial lung biopsy two days prior to presentation. Although our patient had a tension pneumothorax, it is worth noting that post‐pneumonectomy syndrome (PPS) is a rare post-pneumonectomy complication occurring typically within several months and caused by excessive mediastinal shifting that results in airway compression.

Donating Eggs in Medical School: A Story of Bodily Autonomy and Privilege
As a second-year medical student who had been anxiously struggling with unanticipated medical expenses and no viable income, I thought about the upcoming months-long amount of time during which I would solely be studying for my first board exam, largely confined to my office and figuratively tied to my desk. My thought process was complex, but surprisingly quick. Within weeks of an initial Google search, I applied to become an egg donor.
