Rate My Professor Ernest Moore

Moore's primary research interests center on trauma-induced coagulopathy, resuscitation strategies for achieving thrombo-inflammatory hemostasis, and mechanisms of post-injury organ dysfunction. His trauma research laboratory at Denver Health has maintained continuous NIH funding for 35 years. He has authored over 1,700 peer-reviewed publications, including recent works on emergency medical clinician volume and mortality in trauma patients (2026), multiomic analyses of thromboinflammation in trauma (2026), and guidelines for vascular injuries. Moore co-edited seminal textbooks such as Trauma (9th edition), Surgical Secrets (7th edition), and Trauma Induced Coagulopathy (2nd edition). He edited the Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery from 2011 to 2021 and has presided over nine major surgical societies, including the Society of University Surgeons and American Association for the Surgery of Trauma. His profound impact is evidenced by numerous honors, including the Medallion for Scientific Achievement from the American Surgical Association (2019), Lifetime Achievement Award from the Society of University Surgeons (2016), Distinguished Investigator Awards from the Shock Society (2017) and American College of Critical Care Medicine (2014), and honorary fellowships from the Royal Colleges of Surgeons of Edinburgh, Ireland, and Thailand.
