. @DianaNwokoye and I recently had the opportunity to teach @UTSWNews med students about one of the most common neurosurgical bedside procedures—EVD placement—during their neuro skills block. Hopefully got some people interested in #Neurosurgery!

Dr. @drpouratian and his collaborators have a new publication in AJOB Empirical Bioethics. Check it out! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36137012/ @UTSWNews @UTSWBrain

Drs. Hoes and Whittemore received a grant from the Southwestern Academy of Teachers Education Research Fund to create a problem-based learning module for fourth-year medical students rotating on the neurosurgery service. Congratulations! @UTSWNews #Neurosurgery

Pretty amazing reflecting on the anatomy I learnt from Dr. Acland some 15 years ago though his video atlas, and now he is still teaching me even after his death. This time #microsuturing techniques. #bypass @youngneuros @cvsection @UTSWNSResidency
