We are committed to the advancement of the art and science of neurological surgery through excellence in research. The Neurosurgical Innovations and Training Centerworks on the development of new operative techniques in microneurosurgery, skull base surgery, vascular neurosurgery, and neuroendoscopy as well as the integration of neurosurgery with novel technologies. In addition, we aim to expand the current understanding of surgical neuroanatomy by integrating intricate cadaveric dissections with 3D visualization, virtual reality, and computer simulation in order to enhance neurosurgical training and practice.
Our current areas of research include minimally invasive and transtubular neurosurgery, surgical simulation and planning, surgical robotics, flexible endoscopy, flexible surgical instrumentation, white matter navigation, 3D printing, virtual and augmented reality, and operative techniques in microneurosurgery.
