The University of Alabama at Birmingham Global Neurosurgery
Our program is located within a tertiary referral hospital for the region, and our pediatric neurosurgery division provides advanced care in all facets of pediatric neurosurgery. Faculty currently active in global surgery initiatives include Jeffrey Blount, MD, James M. Johnston, MD, Brandon G. Rocque, MD, MPH, and Curtis Rozzelle, MD. In addition, our program trains north American medical students, neurosurgery residents, and pediatric neurosurgical fellows, with a long and distinguished history of training many current leaders in American pediatric neurosurgery. We also participate in the Children's of Alabama Global Surgery Program, hosting visiting fellows in Birmingham and working with surgeons in Vietnam and Ghana to build or strengthen clinical programs in the surgical management of hydrocephalus, spina bifida, brain tumors, epilepsy, vascular disorders and craniofacial deformity.
