RESUMEN
Neonatology pioneer Mildred (Millie) T. Stahlman celebrated her 100th birthday on July 31, 2022. Her distinguished career at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, TN, is reviewed to commemorate this milestone. Stahlman was arguably the first to establish a modern neonatal intensive care unit in 1961, successfully utilizing negative pressure ventilation and umbilical arterial and venous catheters to monitor blood gasses and pH levels. She received early invaluable training in newborn physiology at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, under John Lind and Petter Karlberg, and at Vanderbilt under Elliot V. Newman. Stahlman also consulted with luminaries Geoffrey Dawes, Donald Barron, and L. Stanley James. As director of the Vanderbilt NICU, she trained 80 fellows from more than 20 countries. The latter 20 years of her career were highlighted by collaborations with Jeff Whitsett. She was the recipient of the AAP Virginia Apgar Award, the APS John Howland Medal, and served as a member of the Institute of Medicine.

The aim of this article is to explore John Henry Newman's reflections on the meaning of the medical profession in a lecture to medical students in Dublin. Specifically, it will show how Newman's exposition of what we have called the â³medical fallacyâ³ allows us to consider him as an authoritative interlocutor in the debate on the naturalistic fallacy and the indefinition of the good, led by David Hume and Georg Edward Moore. Thus, in times of COVID-19, euthanasia and emotivism, delving into the thought of the English author can contribute to illuminating the bioethical problems of our time.
