On August 31, 1968, the legendary surgeon Dr. Michael E. DeBakey and his team in Houston, Texas, performed the world's first simultaneous multi-organ transplant.

In a remarkable feat of timing and coordination, a heart, a partial lung, and two kidneys were successfully transferred from a single donor to four different recipients.

This groundbreaking procedure was a landmark in the history of medicine. It established the foundation for the organ procurement and transplantation systems that have saved countless lives across the globe, including thousands here in the UK through the NHS.

This August, our School of Medicine Class of 2029 reached two incredible milestones!

The White Coat Ceremony marked the official beginning of medical training, as students received their white coats—a symbol of professionalism, compassion, and commitment to the study of medicine.

Family Day (held in both Houston and Temple) welcomed loved ones into the Baylor community, offering a glimpse into the student experience.

A huge thank you to our Baylor alumni community for generously providing white coats and words of affirmation to every first-year medical student. Your support makes these moments possible! 💙
