Description
I am Chair of the UAB Department of Neurosurgery and have a busy intracranial practice with an emphasis on surgery for brain tumors, but also do a variety of other procedures. I have the pleasure of working with outstanding faculty and training superb residents. I am active in translational research and have an NIH funded laboratory which develops novel oncolytic viruses and other approaches to immunotherapy of brain tumors which we then translate into clinical trials.
