The Noteworthy Neighbors article last month, featuring six medical doctors who are UVTO residents, promised to acknowledge any who might have been missed. Howard Wilson, recently the speaker at a Men's Club Breakfast, responded with this gracious note:
We're relatively new here and haven't been included in the Residents' Book, but I'd like to have my wife included in the physicians' list.
Miriam G. Wilson, M.D., was born in Yakima, Washington. She attended the University of Washington where she earned her BS and MS degrees and was awarded the President's Medal. She was accepted at the University of California Medical School at San Francisco from which she graduated in 1950. Her internship and residency in Pediatrics were completed at USC-Los Angeles County Hospital. After two years in private practice, she returned to USC where she became a member of the Medical School faculty. Her interests soon turned to Pediatric Genetics and she established one of the earliest cytogenetic laboratories for chromosome analysis. She authored over one hundred papers. She became Professor in 1969 and Emerita Professor in 1996.
Welcome to both of you, Howard and Miriam Wilson, and thank you for the contributions you are already making to our UVTO community!
