Research

Neurologists and neurosurgeons are doctors trained in conditions that affect the nervous system. They work to improve care for people who need a craniectomy. Researchers in the Brain Tumor Program study better ways to diagnose and treat brain tumors. One area of study is brain-mapping techniques for tumors that are difficult to reach.
