- Description:
- Dr. Albert Sparrow, MD, talks about being the first fully trained pediatric cardiologist in the state, when he came to the Department of Pediatrics and Human Development in the College of Human Medicine at Michigan State University. Sparrow discusses his pioneering research during a period of tremendous progress in heart surgery, treating infants and children and developing procedures to manage small patients. Sparrow says that many ground breaking open heart surgical techniques for infants came from overseas where ethical and legal considerations allowed for more human subject experimentation. He also talks about his mentors at MSU, the great freedom he was given by the college to develop his skills and comments on the move of the MSU College of Medicine to Grand Rapids, MI. Part of the Michigan State University Faculty Emeriti Association Oral History Project.
