Fresh off the press in JBJS! Honored to be a part of this work.
We identified novel genetic markers linked with spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, lumbar spondylolisthesis, and pseudarthrosis after spinal fusion.

Super interesting research. The answer is at least partly that elephants’ cells have an astounding twenty copies of p53, a cancer repair gene. Ours have just one. scientificamerican.com/artic…

I received no mentorship when applying to Orthopaedic summer programs as an MS-1. After a fantastic summer experience, I felt the need to provide the incoming MS-1s with the tools they needed to navigate this process. A big thanks to my classmates who helped make this possible!

So proud of @alexjahangir and his talk at TEDx Nashville today. His message on leadership and how to build trust in a crisis was spot on.
Mentorship and the relationships built with trainees is the most meaningful aspect of my job. @WilsVaughan15 - it’s not goodbye, it’s see you later! – at Nashville, TN
My time at Vanderbilt was the best professional experience of my career to date! Special thanks to @BFStephensMD, @AM_AbtahiMD, @ScottZuck for their inspiration, motivation, and expert guidance along the way.

🚨Editor's Pick🚨
A study led by @BFStephensMD from @VUMChealth created a calculator to predict mortality in elderly #spine trauma patients.
This tool is an important development as the incidence of elderly patient spine trauma ⬆️.
