Biography
I am a clinically active stereotactic and functional neurosurgeon conducting translational research in peripheral nerve regeneration and epilepsy. I take an interdisciplinary approach to solve challenging clinical problems directly impacting patients, such as accelerating the rate of nerve repair after injury and treating seizures caused by brain tumors. My training and education have allowed me to live all over the US, but I love Dartmouth because of the collegial environment, the institutional support for collaboration and research, and the commitment to teaching and training future physicians and scientists. It’s also a place of great natural beauty and easy access to amazing hiking and skiing.
