As a med student who had 2 children during med school I'm often asked what kind of support I need, and besides the obvious like childcare, I never had a good answer. This elective at the University of Minnesota is the definition of support, all med schools should take notes.

Limited infiltration of host immune cells in the very first case of 10-gene-edited pig-to-human (brain-dead) Kidney #Xenotransplant

<=74 h
Minimal B/T lymphocytes
CD45+ cells are mainly donor-derived M2-like macrophages, plus neutrophils

Love to see more analysis on endothelial/epithelial compartment (Another paper in progress?)
