A less invasive approach to implanting a left ventricular assist device (LVAD), which leaves the sternum intact, has led to improved outcomes at UT Southwestern, including a four-year survival rate that is more than 30% higher than the INTERMACS (Interagency Registry for Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support) average.

Molecular imaging expert Samuel Achilefu, Ph.D., will join UT Southwestern Feb. 1 as the first Chair of a new Department of Biomedical Engineering.

Whether it was the place they found their calling, their community, or a lifelong companion, UT Southwestern made a difference in the lives of four alumni, just as it’s made a difference in the lives of tens of thousands of alumni worldwide.

With the aid of a R01 grant from the National Institutes of Health and a large animal model of the disease, Dr. Kim and his team will develop and test minimally invasive tissue-engineering methods to transform the inflammatory environment into a regenerative one.

When Drs. Sandra Schmid and Michael Rosen began planning UT Southwestern's cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) facility, they shared a vision: They wanted the University to use the new technology as soon as it attained atomic resolution.

From investing in the most advanced cryo-electron microscopy to building novel 3-D optical microscopes for cancer studies, UT Southwestern is at the forefront of using and creating the technologies needed to advance biomedical discovery.

Those who know Dr. Josep Rizo can understand his fascination with the brain. After all, he's a man of more than two minds – equally at home in neuroscience, in art, and in chess, to name a few.
