I am reminded of Barney Clark, the recipient of the Jarvik-7 – he lived for 112 days, but brushed up against the limits of his transplanted mechanical heart as time went on and on.
- iancmceachern 2y agoI worked for Dr. Robert Jarvik for my first job out of engineering school. It was an amazing kickoff point for a long career of designing and building medical devices and implants. It's taken me all over the world and I've designed devices for every part of the body. Dr. Jarvik is quite the character.
