For the third consecutive year, members of our MGB Neurosurgery Global Health Program traveled to West Africa to collaborate with local teams in expanding access to neurosurgical care.

This year marked the team’s first visit to Korle Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra, Ghana, with a focus on endoscopic endonasal pituitary surgery and epilepsy surgery.

Congratulations to every member of this incredible team for their dedication, partnership, and commitment to advancing global neurosurgery. And a massive thank you to all of the sponsors and partners who make this work possible.

Congratulations to Dr. Mohsen Jamali on receiving funding for his research in Cellular and Circuit-Level Signatures of Executive Dysfunction in Parkinson’s Disease!
 
This research aims to pinpoint cellular‑level markers of executive dysfunction and determine how these neural signatures relate to clinical severity. Ultimately, this work may help guide earlier detection and new treatments to slow or prevent Parkinson’s disease dementia.
