Part II then examines Andersen’s role in defining the new disease “cystic fibrosis of the pancreas” and her career of active engagement in various clinical pursuits and research, both in pathology and pediatrics. Chapters in this section also discuss the numerous attempts made by others to minimize Andersen’s work through gender bias and the Matilda Effect. The book concludes by reviewing the foundations laid for CF, Andersen’s legacy, and her terminal illness. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing an engaging narrative style, \u003ci\u003eDorothy Hansine Andersen \u003c\/i\u003eis a historically relevant, invaluable text for anyone interested in the life of Dorothy Anderson and the nascence of cystic fibrosis diagnoses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eJohn Scott Baird MD\u003cdiv\u003eColumbia University\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eDepartment of Pediatrics\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eDivision of Critical Care\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eNew York, NY\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eUSA\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDr. John Scott Baird graduated from the Columbia University College of Physicians \u0026amp; Surgeons in 1985.
