As a clinical collaborator on the new ARPA-H AIR program with Philips, Johns Hopkins and Boston University, I'm excited about what robotics and AI-enabled automation could mean to expand access to this life-saving therapy for patients. philips.com/a-w/about/news/a…

Great energy at the MINUTE Surgical Training this weekend! Surgeons from around the country came to learn the protocol and get truly hands-on with SCUBA, a minimally invasive ICH evacuation technique. Grateful to be doing this alongside such a dedicated group of collaborators.

🎤 The final lecture of SNIS 2026 featured @JMoccoMD’s Medicolegal Perspective, offering valuable insights into navigating risk and responsibility in neurointerventional practice. Key takeaways included the importance of documenting clinical decision-making, engaging patients through a true consent process, and recognizing communication as a modifiable factor in reducing medicolegal risk. A powerful reminder that transparency, trust, and the physician-patient relationship remain central to excellent care. 🧠

The Cerebrovascular Complications Conference is probably the best practical day-to-day procedural learning event of the year. 3 days of experts from around the world sharing their complications and what we can all learn from each one.

Had an amazing time in Central Park this weekend. ⚾ Our neurosurgery residents are not just brilliant and hard working, but they also played great softball-turned multiple double plays! To the graduates: we couldn’t be more proud of you. The future of the field is in good hands.

Provocative discussions on innovation, clinical leadership and education. My visit to UC San Diego Neurological Surgery covered it all — and reminded me why curiosity is at the center of everything we do - for our patients and for this field. Thank you @UCSDNeuroSurg.

Incredibly excited to announce our site activation this week (and first two patients enrolled) for the STRIDE Trial. Hopefully, with minimally invasive treatments options, we can help more patients suffering from Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus. @CereVasc
