Honored to interview Dr. Barth Green LIVE ON-STAGE at the second annual @UMneurosurgery Spine Fellows Reunion!

To kick off an upcoming series on "Neurosurgery in the Press," Dr. Green tells the inspiring origin story of the @BuonicontiFund and Miami Project to Cure Paralysis, after decades of hard work and heartwarming care with the Buoniconti family.

Links to the episode and a wonderful piece in the @MiamiHerald, below.

Titanium, PEEK, and 3D-printed cages — each promised better fusion, load sharing, and alignment restoration. Our review shows what the data say… but the real question is: what’s the next age of cage material? 🦴💡

Advanced tissue sensors during surgery near nerves are key to preventing damage. As we move toward autonomous robotic tools (beyond image guidance alone), they’ll become even more critical. @UCSF @SeoulNatlUni
