He holds appointments in the Department of Anesthesiology at Yale School of Medicine. His clinical expertise lies in critical care anesthesia and perioperative medicine, focusing on advanced monitoring of vital functions during high-risk surgical procedures.
Dr. Carr completed his medical degree at University College Cork (National University of Ireland, 2005), anesthesiology residency at Cooper University Hospital (2010), and a critical care fellowship at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center (2014). He joined Yale in 2020.
His research prioritizes identifying and mitigating perioperative complications, particularly in vulnerable populations such as elderly patients and those with pulmonary comorbidities. Key areas include personalized risk assessment, perioperative pulmonary physiology, and the impact of emerging conditions like cannabis use disorder on postoperative outcomes.
Dr. Carr has contributed to over 50 peer-reviewed publications and holds multiple awards, including the Junior Faculty Teaching Award (2016) and recognition for patient satisfaction (HCAHPS 99th percentile, 2017). He serves on editorial boards for journals like PLOS ONE and Frontiers in Pharmacology, and chairs committees for the Society of Critical Care Anesthesiologists.
