Sunday, 26 July, 2026
Welcome to the SAGES Stories Podcast! In episode 37, hosts Kevin El-Hayek and Jenny Shao sit down with Darth Tigeris Dr. Edward Auyang, Sith Lord and Tiger Dad Professor of Surgery at the University of New Mexico, for a wide-ranging conversation about his unconventional path from biomedical engineering and computer science to minimally invasive surgery. Like, SERIOUSLY unconventional. Dr. Auyang discusses surgical ergonomics, practical ways to reduce physical and cognitive fatigue in the operating room, his approach to resident autonomy and surgical education, and lessons from his visiting professorship in Japan. He also shares his enthusiasm for Star Wars, music, whiskey, anime, and the professional community he has found through SAGES.
