So honored to be part of this team...one patient at a time...helping more than ever before!
The @VUMCTransplant team set a world record by performing 174 adult and pediatric heart transplants in 2024. The number of patients whose lives were saved by the heart transplant team far surpasses any previous total by an individual transplant center.

AMAZING group of people and fabulous training opportunity for anyone interested in ECMO.
I am beyond thrilled to introduce you to Dr. Kaitlin Schaaf @kaitlyn_schaaf - she is our first PhD graduate from our lab group @LSTCI and really knocked it out of the park today discussing her work on influenza. Congratulations! @VUMCLung
Proud of our fellow Dr. Tucker on his report on anticoagulation practices during ECMO in lung transplant. @VUMCTransplant

Did a personal mini-retreat to review data, organize manuscripts, and brainstorm grants. 2 days on campus in a reserved room which was not my office. Do friends who pomodoro together get more funding?
