Not matching was most certainly not part of the plan, but it was not the end of the road. Hi again everyone! My name is Sanjeev and I look forward to the #neurosurgery #match2027 and sharing all the ways I have worked to improve myself and my application. 😊

What happens when a rare spinal tumor grows around critical nerves and a major artery? That’s the challenge facing a multidisciplinary team of @UCSFHospitals specialists in this complex cervical #chordoma case. piped.video/watch?v=u1wuo1Xj…

Last week, USF Neurosurgery hosted its Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery & Deformity Course at CAMLS.
Thank you to guest faculty Dr. Christopher Maulucci, Course Director Dr. Erik Hayman, and our spine faculty for sharing their expertise.

New publication!!! Fantastic work by @PoojanShuk90434 on brain activities that underlie turning and how meds and DBS work differently on turns! Check it out
🚶🔄 What does the brain do when we turn and what changes in Parkinson’s disease?
Excited to share our work in npj Parkinson’s Disease! @Nature_NPJ
🧠We recorded from the motor cortex and basal ganglia during walking and turning in 5 people with Parkinson’s.
📉 Better turning was associated with reduced beta activity.
💊⚡ Improvements with medication and DBS were linked to distinct neural signatures, pointing toward more personalized stimulation for gait.
Grateful to @DorisWangLab, our collaborators, and especially our research participants!📖

Very important study led by @sami_barrit, demonstrating the risks of relying on LLMs for clinical decision making. Of 225 physicians, 190 made at least one harmful decision when using adversarial LLMs, vs only 21 when using LLMs acting under good faith: medrxiv.org/content/10.64898…
Even with physicians "in-the-loop," in this case experienced specialists, adversarial AI increased the harmful decision rate from 2 to 49%.
A randomized assessment of case scenarios, not actual patients, but indicative of the limitation of oversight.
