Welcome Dr. Muhamed (Mo) Hadzipasic to the MGB Neurosurgery Department! 🎉 Dr. Hadzipasic, our newest Spine Neurosurgeon, will complete his fellowship in complex spine surgery at the Cleveland Clinic this summer before officially starting with us in August 2025. In addition to his clinical expertise, he will also lead impactful basic science research. Welcome to the team, Dr. Hadzipasic! #Neurosurgery #SpineSurgery #WelcomeToMGB

Liquid biopsy for CNS lymphoma. Neurosurgeons are often asked to provide tissue biopsy but the varied presentation and imaging in CNS lymphoma can take time to come to biopsy. Direct CSF genotyping, as developed in the @ShankarLabMGH @MGHNeurosurg can shrink the time to diagnosis and have patients start on treatment sooner. See doi.org/10.1182/blood.202402… for more details.
