Sometimes, certain meetings resonate like a turning point. This week's encounter in Bel-Ombre with Professor Melanie Graham from the University of Minnesota is one such moment. Behind her precise words, the calm demeanor of a researcher, and her passion for xenotransplantation—those pancreatic islet transplants that can offer freedom to diabetics—lies an urgency: the need to no longer lag behind.
