For National Nutrition Month, we’re highlighting Kara, dietitian, who works at our Center for Treatment of Eating Disorders. Head to the link in the comments to read more about her career experience.

A new study led by the kid experts at Children’s Minnesota found that universal screening for congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV), the leading non-genetic cause of hearing loss in infants, significantly increased diagnoses of mild hearing loss in infants.

cCMV screening is offered through audiology services that are provided by the ear, nose and throat (ENT) program at Children’s Minnesota. Learn more at the link in our comments.

Go, Max!🎉👏Max's care team cheered him on during his Paralympic Winter Games events. He is among 12 athletes chosen by U.S. Paralympics Nordic Skiing to represent Team USA at the games.

In early 2025, Max was diagnosed with a life-altering brain tumor that made his dream of competing in the Paralympics seem impossible. But with Max’s determination and the expert care at Children’s Minnesota, he was back to skiing and training in no time!
