Excited to see work from my time at @UNeurosurgery with @DaniTerrellMD looking at financial toxicity in patients with #Glioblastoma making it to print in @JNeurooncol. Understanding the financial impact of #CancerCare is critical to patient outcomes.

Every year my favorite part of @CNS_Update is the Pathways to Neurosurgery program. Seeing these high school students learn and get excited about #Neurosurgery is amazing! Come by 381A/B if you would like to experience it for yourself. #Volunteer #MedEd

While we like to be minimally invasive and use short segment constructs at @MSKCCSpine, it’s just as important to be able to revise the failures. Capturing the screw heads allows us to extend the construct in a minimally invasive fashion. #Neurosurgery #Oncology #Spine #Surgery

One of the best parts of working @MSKCCSpine is the collaborative nature of patient management. #Pain management with @MSK_Anesthesia and their #pain #fellows is no exception. Always great when they join us in the OR for hands on learning.

Got to check out @JonBatiste playing at the @BeaconTheatre Tuesday, which was amazing, but the true highlight was recognizing that the dude jamming out on sax was my college classmate from @Harvard, @imaginewmarcus. Great to see the amazing things he has done
