- Amazing evening celebrating the end of my pediatric neurosurgery fellowship @StanfordChild. As I enter this final month of training, I am very grateful for opportunity to learn under @CormacOMaher, Kelly Mahaney, Laura Prolo, and H. Westley Phillips. #stanfordneurosurgery
- I am proud to share our work published today in @ScienceTM! We report a novel technique to replace microglia in the CNS as a therapy for a genetic neurodegenerative disorder mouse model. Thank you to our collaborators and everyone on the @WernigLab team. bit.ly/3w9IrUY
- Currently in my Monday clinic at @dellchildrens @PedNeuroscience! We are focused on providing individualized care for each pediatric neurosurgery patient. #pediatricneurosurgery @UTAustin @DellMedSchool @uthealthaustin
- Thrilled to announce the launch of the Kumar Lab website at @UTAustin @DellMedSchool 🤘! Explore our work in pediatric neurosurgery, cellular therapeutics, and opportunities to join our efforts advancing care for pediatric brain tumors.
- Wonderful lecture and teaching session today by our Visiting Professor, Dr. Jay Storm MD, Chief of the Division of Neurosurgery @ChildrensPhila @PennNSG! #grandrounds #pediatricneurosurgery @StanfordNsurg
- Great experience sharing our work on microglia replacement for pediatric neurological disorders at the 2023 @PedsSection meeting. Looking forward to catching up with my #pediatricneurosurgery friends and colleagues this week! @StanfordNsurg
- Today, the last day of our academic year, we were visited by Dr. Nelson Oyesiku, Chair of @UNCneurosurgery to discuss his ruminations on academic neurosurgery. #stanfordneurosurgery #grandrounds
- Outstanding Grand Rounds lecture by Visiting Professor Dr. Matthew Howard, Chair of Neurosurgery at the University of lowa. He gifted us a special print copy of Aphorisms by Sir William Osler to help guide our path from residency to academic faculty. #stanfordneurosurgery
