We were honored to host the @AANSNeurosurg Medical Student Chapter Annual dissection lab last week. The program brought together students, #neurosurgery residents, and faculty for a day of rigorous discussion, technical insight, and collaborative learning in skull base surgery🙌🏻

Good rule of thumb: loss of consciousness generally doesn’t happen unless the brainstem or both cerebral hemispheres are not functioning. In other words, if only one hemisphere is not functioning, a person will remain conscious.
Learning to do brain surgery is the same as learning many things. You divide the big task into smaller tasks (chunk). Learn and master those smaller tasks in low risk situations until routine.
