Another great morning at the 2024 CNS Annual Meeting with Dr. Henry Brem talking about research and informing clinical care and Jacinda Ardern, former PM of New Zealand
Magic Johnson gave a great talk at the 2024 CNS Annual Meeting, it was just a fun time watching him talk and get selfies with people and challenge neurosurgeons to chest bump him.
Dr. Steve Giannotta gave a great talk on leadership at the Congress of Neurological Surgeons Annual Meeting
Congratulations to the 2024 Detroit Tigers for making the MLB playoffs this year. It’s been a long road back.
