Neuroanatomy Lab
The Neuroanatomy Lab is a division of the School of Medicines Department of Neurosurgery under the guidance of Andrew Grande, MD; and Michael Park, MD, PhD. The 1,400 square-feet space is dedicated to the advancement of medicine through education and research related to the anatomy of the human brain.
The lab functions as both a resource for residents in clinical training programs and for outside medical industry personnel interested in expanding their understanding of the brain’s anatomical structures. In addition, the lab hosts visiting researchers through its fellowship program. These fellows aggressively pursue novel and innovative solutions to current neurosurgical issues.
The lab also has a strong intradepartmental, multidisciplinary research program with the U's Center for Magnetic Resonance Research focused on high-field MRI solutions for neurological conditions such as trigeminal neuralgia and incidentally found intracranial aneurysms.
