PRO TIP: if you’re a doctor stuck inside for the eclipse you can still experience 4 minutes of total darkness by scheduling a peer review call with a colleague outside your specialty who denies one of your patients the treatment they need

Truly humble to be honored by my peers at #emorymed Emory School of Medicine Emory Healthcare but it takes the entire team to get the job done! None of what we do is possible without the #RNs #APPs #MAs #residents #fellows #PCCs #Schedulers and so many more! Emory Neurosurgery

From Robert Schumann to Richard Wagner. I enjoyed very much delivering my lecture Notes on the Romantics yesterday for a very attentive audience. Thanks to Goethe-Zentrum Atlanta and the Atlanta Symphony for the invitation! 😀

How do we manage idh mutant brain tumors as a multidisciplinary team, given new inhibitors? Where is the field headed? Come check out the great discussion by though leaders in the field. SNO AANS CNS European Association of Neurosurgical Societies EANO ASTRO

Congrats to Jarius and the rest of his colleagues who worked hard to get this project completed!

*It was an absolute pleasure having Dr. Michael McDermott, chair of Neurosurgery @ Miami Neuroscience Institute, as our visiting professor today at Emory Neurosurgery. Our residents loved learning from him and we hope to have him visit again very soon! #Neurosurgery

DYK that ⁦AANS⁩ annual meeting in May this year….is the 40th anniversary of the ⁦Section on Tumors⁩ ?! Which means innovative new programming!! Don’t miss this new tumor board with faculty from ⁦European Association of Neurosurgical Societies⁩

Congrats to our Emory Neurosurgery 2024 incoming class. We are excited to have you join us.

Nationally, 1 in 5 engineering degrees are awarded to women.

Here, it's 1 in 3 — we lead the country in the number of women engineering graduates every year.

Also, the number of women engineering undergraduates here is 12% higher than the national average. #WomensDay

It’s part three of our fellowship series to help trainees learn a little bit more about the many neurosurgical Oncology programs around the country. This time we are featuring BarrowNeurological Washington University Neurosurgery and Moffitt Cancer Center neurosurgery! Check out the flyer below:

Thank you to the NASBS for their generous support!

Don't forget - abstract submission deadline for the SNO/ASCO CNS METS Conference is April 8. Submit your research here: bit.ly/427CLZv
