Texas Medical Center’s Post

For decades, cardiac advancements have been a hallmark of the Texas Medical Center. This legacy is being extended in an important new way with the first-in-human implantation of the BiVACOR Total Artificial Heart at The Texas Heart Institute (THI). The visionaries behind this successful implant, The Texas Heart Institute, BiVACOR, Baylor College of Medicine, and CHI St. Luke's Health - Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center, have consistently pushed boundaries to transform the landscape of cardiac care. It is an honor to provide an environment that fosters such innovations, enabling academia, healthcare, and industry to work together on breakthrough technologies. #TMC #HeartFailure #HeartDisease #CardiovascularHealth #Cardiology #MedTech

TMC is not only building a global program, but we are always looking to unite our community. Last week, our team was excited to have over 70 members from our TMC Biobridge program come together under one roof. Members from each country could connect with our Houston team, share their experiences, and enjoy one another’s company. We look forward to the next!
