Dr. William Ball, MD

Very sad to learn of Dr. J. Wesley Alexander's death on July 7. He was a transplant pioneer and innovator at the @uofcincy College of Medicine who performed our first kidney, pancreas, heart and liver transplants. His mentoring, research and clinical skills will be missed.

I had the pleasure this week of joining Dr Melanie Cushion, sr associate dean for research, to honor 2 of the @uofcincy College of Medicine's most distinguished researchers: Dr. David Hui and Dr Frank McCormack. Both have made significant research discoveries. @UC_CoMResearch

Congratulations to @CincyChildrens for latest @USNews ranking as the No. 2 U.S. children's hospital. We're proud that your physicians and researchers are the faculty of the @uofcincy College of Medicine Dept of Pediatrics.
