Clinical Trials

This page contains information on clinical trials at the Division of Neurosurgery.

We are at the forefront of neurosurgical innovation through our commitment to clinical trials. These trials are essential for advancing our understanding of neurological disorders and developing new surgical techniques and tools. Our multidisciplinary teams work collaboratively to ensure the highest ethical and scientific standards, aiming to translate research findings into improved patient care. Participation in our clinical trials offers patients access to cutting-edge treatments while contributing to the future of neurosurgery.
