🇹🇷 🇨🇦 MD (Neurosurgeon), PhD (UofT ‘25) Postdoctoral Research Fellow @ BWH Center for Brain Circuit Therapeutics, Harvard Medical School
Boston, MA
Joined July 2020
It’s never easy for a surgeon to step away from the operating room for four years to pursue a #PhD in pure research — but it was my dream to learn, discover, and contribute to high-impact science. I now look forward to returning to surgery and developing new ways to treat

Amazing to watch the robot seamlessly thread electrodes—and to hold a real model #Neurolink device in our hands. Congratulations to my supervisor Dr. Andres Lozano and the entire Neuralink team on this milestone!
🇨🇦 We just completed two surgeries in Canada—our first procedures outside the United States! This marks an important step towards bringing our technology to more people around the world.
