All ISHLT members who list their primary Professional Community as Anesthesiology and Critical Care will automatically be members of the Anesthesiology and Critical Care Professional Community.

Anesthesiology and Critical Care Professional Community members will engage and share knowledge and information with each other via the online Anesthesiology and Critical Care Community in ISHLTConnect and will help ISHLT maintain its vibrant and unique multidisciplinary character by:

• Electing anesthesiology and critical care representatives to the relevant Interdisciplinary Networks (AHFTX, MCS, PVD, ALFTX)
• Electing an anesthesiology and critical care representative to the Early Career and Trainee Committee

• Mentoring anesthesiologists and critical care professionals in the early stages of their career
• Welcoming new anesthesiology and critical care members into the Society
