Mashup Score: 3Hooked on Rheum with Stanley Cohen, MD - 2 year(s) ago
When I was in medical school at the University of Alabama at Birmingham in 1972, it was really the beginning of immunology as a field of study. When I was studying immunology as a first-year medical student, I had two professors that were really giants in the field: Dr. Max Cooper and Dr. Claude Bennett.

Mashup Score: 2Hooked on Rheum with Roy Fleischmann, MD - 2 year(s) ago
Growing up, I had an aunt with rheumatoid arthritis. In those days, there were few effective treatments. By the time she was in her 40s, she was confined to a wheelchair. She died at age 54 from complications of the disease. This was in the 1960s, and there was little that doctors could do for her.When I reached medical school, it seemed that the best teachers I had in my training were

How I became a rheumatologist is kind of an odd story. When I was in medical school at Yale, I did my work in the infectious diseases section with Richard Root, MD, and William Greene, MD. I had a prize-winning thesis on inflammation and white blood cells. If your thesis wins a prize at Yale, you present at student research day.

I grew up in South Africa, and my late father was a well-known general practitioner. I used to go along with him on house calls and that was my first hook in medicine, per se. I was drawn into it — and maybe that was his intention.

There were a handful of ways I became interested in rheumatology. The first was when I was doing research at Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo, New York, in summer 1985. I worked with Pat Bealmear, a former nun who had a PhD in research and immunology and left the clergy to focus on science. It was there that I saw how little we knew about how to transplant someone who has severe combined
