Leonard Rowntree, Louis Wilson, Fielding Garrison, and the origins of teaching medical history at the Mayo Clinic.

A visiting surgeon described his disappointment with an aspect of the Mayo Clinic in 1914, stating that there was "the almost lack of anything that could be dignified by the term 'lecture.'" One year later, the Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research was founded. By 1917, the foundation declared history of medicine a graduate-level subject, and history of medicine questions were included in final oral examinations.

SMC5/6 is required for replication fork stability and faithful chromosome segregation during neurogenesis.

Mutations of SMC5/6 components cause developmental defects, including primary microcephaly. To model neurodevelopmental defects, we engineered a mouse wherein is conditionally knocked out (cKO) in the developing neocortex. cKO mice exhibited neurodevelopmental defects due to neural progenitor cell (NPC) apoptosis, which led to reduction in cortical layer neurons.

Evolution of out-of-hospital emergency cardiac care: Heart attack therapy for a retired president helped modernize American emergency medical services.

In the late 1960s, American emergency medical services (EMS) began to upgrade from mere Red Cross first aid to systems that now provide sophisticated advanced life support. This revolution in EMS stemmed from two pioneering Belfast reports in that described how early out-of-hospital coronary care saved lives. Inspired, a handful of American physicians implemented avant-garde programs in the USA.
