"Why I Give and the gift I was given" is the focus of the latest edition of Mayo Magazine. J.W. Marriott, Jr., chair and CEO of Marriott International and chair of The Campaign for Mayo Clinic, opens this issue with examples of how philanthropic support for the campaign has made a difference in medical education and discoveries that have been translated into improved healthcare.
Highlights include: the latest breakthroughs in Parkinson's disease research, advanced technologies used to detect the early stages of cardiovascular disease, heartfelt stories from benefactors and patients, and the latest news throughout Mayo's enterprise.
