🎓 Congrats to the 3 Cs — Drs. Cavaleri, Chartrain, and Chung — on successfully completing 7 years of neurosurgery residency training! I remember Intern Bootcamp like it was yesterday. Job well done! These 3 talented surgeons exemplify Confidence, Character & Collaboration, and will continue to set the bar even higher.
Graduating from our elite USC #Neurosurgery residency program, they’re headed to fellowships @CUNeurosurgery, @Neurosurgery_CS and Cornell.

Our paper on the “sweetspot” for focused ultrasound in essential tremor was finally published last week in science advances! So happy to finally share this work and so thankful to everyone who helped make this happen.

@NeurosurgeryUSC was thrilled to be an initial site for the #ENRICH trial just published in @NEJM. Congrats to my friend Gustavo Pradilla and @EmoryNeurosurg!
#Neurosurgery #Stroke – at Los Angeles, CA
In the ENRICH trial of minimally invasive cerebral hematoma removal within 24 hours after onset of hemorrhage, functional outcomes were better with surgery than with medical treatment, particularly among patients with lobar hemorrhages. Full trial results: nej.md/3VPYggf

Excited about this project that I was able to help spearhead! We’re hopeful that this is an important step towards improving global stroke outcomes.
