With her election by the Legislature on Monday, Dr. Ruth Johnson became the seventh Mayo Clinic physician to serve on the University of Minnesota Board of Regents since 1907, when Dr. Will Mayo served.
But beyond its historical significance, Johnson s election restores and reinforces a relationship between Mayo Clinic and the university, said one of her chief legislative advocates.
