Congratulations to PGY-4 resident Arjun Adapa, MD on receiving the 2026-2027 SNS NSTP Research Award!

This prestigious national honor includes $50,000 in research funding and reflects both Dr. Adapa's commitment to innovation and our department's excellence in mentorship. 👏

[Andrew Chan, MD @andrewchanMD]

Of all the things I do in neurosurgery, one of the most rewarding is watching my mentees succeed.

From seeing my undergraduates publish their first manuscripts, to my medical students finally carrying their years-long research projects to fruition, to the residents who grow so much from intern year to when they graduate chief year ready to take on the world, and even our fellows who take with them our minimally invasive and prone lateral/lateral techniques and tell me when they complete their first lateral cases in practice, it is an honor to play even a small part in the development of these fine young individuals.

That’s why today I couldn’t be more proud to see not one but TWO of my mentees, Harrison Howell and Vardhaan Ambati, match with me here at the Columbia Department of Neurological Surgery at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital.

Harrison and Vardhaan worked so hard to get to this point—including tireless work on our research team—and now I get the opportunity to mold their spine clinical and surgical training.

Looking forward to the next 7 years!

@BobCarterMD @NEJM @BryanDChoi @MarcelaMaus @MGHCancerCenter @MGHNeurosurg Awesome study. Excited to see where this work unfolds moving forward.

[Bob Carter MD, CEO, University of Utah Health @BobCarterMD]

Absolutely thrilled to see this work published in @NEJM today. Study PIs @BryanDChoi and @MarcelaMaus and partners across @MGHCancerCenter and @MGHNeurosurg have done a wonderful job bringing this exciting therapeutic to fruition in treating patients. Designer #CARTCell therapy, part of the personalized gene and cell therapy supertrend, is a major focus for our Department and we are so pleased to see this progress! Congratulations to all the investigators!

Check out our recent paper - Device use trends in neuroendovascular procedures in the United States from 2015 to 2020 - Arjun Rohit Adapa, Fazeel M. Siddiqui, Aditya S. Pandey, 2023 https://t.co/uYbK57Co5A

[Arjun Adapa @neurosurjun]

Curious how #AI can be used to predict molecular alterations in diffuse glioma? Read our group’s study describing DeepGlioma, which can do just that with a diagnostic accuracy of 93%. @NatureMedicine @ToddCHollon

[UMichNeurosciences @UMneurosciences]

Technology developed at @umichmedicine uses artificial intelligence to screen for genetic mutations in cancerous brain tumors in under 90 seconds – which has the potential to streamline diagnosis & treatment of gliomas. More on the @NatureMedicine study: https://t.co/REVjpDqxEV

Congratulations to these 3. Can’t wait to work with y’all.

If machine learning were called predictive optimization and neural networks were stacked regressions then we wouldn't even be having this conversation

I have a 4th grader. It’s jarring how nonchalantly kids talk about active shooter drills. No big deal, eat breakfast, learn fractions, go to recess, prepare for an AR-15 assault, have a snack, play with friends

And with my final boxes packed, today marks the end of 5 years in Ann Arbor and @UMichMedAdmiss. So grateful for my parents, whose sacrifices since their immigration here 32 years ago made this all possible, my friends, and my mentors @umichneuro for all their support. #GOBLUE
