For day 2 of the UMN-Mayo Fellows' Forum, was so very glad to have had access to the wisdom of the incredible Dr Ryan Kelly who does massively important work in reducing stigma against those with addiction. Here is an insightful article featuring Dr Kelly: https://t.co/qGqhwnykdc

Did you know early pacemakers had to be plugged in? A devastating power outage at a U of M hospital on Halloween in 1957 inspired the world's first portable, battery-powered #pacemaker through a collaboration between Dr. C. Walton Lillehei and Earl Bakken, founder of Medtronic.

Did you know the world’s first #KidneyTransplant in a patient with diabetes was performed at the U of M in 1968 by Dr. John Najarian and his transplant team? In the 1970s, the U of M was the only place in the nation where patients with #diabetes underwent such transplants!
