Fetal surgery firsts
The first open fetal surgery in the world was performed at UCSF in the early 1980s.
Rebecca Rapoport is a pediatric nurse practitioner who specializes in follow-up care for children who were critically ill at birth and spent time in the intensive care nursery. She provides neurological and developmental evaluations. In her research, she studies these outcomes to identify risk factors for impaired neurological development during childhood and adolescence.
Before joining UCSF, Rapoport worked as a nurse practitioner in the pediatric cardiology division of New York University Langone Health. She was also a bedside nurse in the pediatric cardiac intensive care unit at Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital, part of New York – Presbyterian.
