摘要
The recent history of changes in the geriatric population in the US, the unique vulnerability to different mechanisms of trauma and the need for innovative management strategies to address them are discussed using the Geriatric "G-60'' service as an illustration. The issue is not whether geriatric trauma "G-60'' is coming; G-60 is here. A short detour into my own research experience is presented not as prescription but guidance for the development of futures cadres of surgeons. Resident research is not a luxury but key to transforming knowledge from benchside to bedside and back. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
