Some thoughts on taking call.

Best family vacation ever. Sailing in Bar Harbor with my dad, my uncle, and the family.

Collaboration when problem-solving is a key lesson I've learned from my mentors, @ConnollyES, J Mocco, Alejandro Berenstein, @joshbedersonmd. What are lessons you'll never forget from your training?

Excited for #2026CNS, especially the @cvsection lectures with @DrJudyHuang & @JoshBedersonMD.

AI in healthcare will ultimately be judged not by what it can demonstrate in a lab, but by whether we can deploy it safely and effectively in the real world. A new study in @NEJM Catalyst describes how leaders at @MountSinaiNeuro evaluated, vetted, integrated, and deployed an AI-powered digital triage platform across our health system. The results are impressive: • ~22,000 completed AI-guided triage encounters • 80% completion among patients who initiated triage • 71% of use occurred outside normal business hours • 88–96% concordance with physician triage • System Usability Score of 85.5 (“excellent”) • Zero reported patient-safety incidents Perhaps most interestingly, among patients who already thought they knew where they should seek care, 62% had an initial plan that differed from the AI triage recommendation, and in 79% of those cases, the system recommended more urgent care. This is where AI can become transformative: not simply answering questions, but creating a 24/7 digital front door that helps patients get the right care, in the right place, at the right time while making better use of limited healthcare resources. Congratulations to Bilal Naved, Nicholas Gavin, @girish_nadkarni, Robert Freeman, [and the entire multidisciplinary @MountSinaiNYC team for demonstrating what thoughtful, clinically grounded AI implementation can look like at scale.

Hanging out with @PutrinoLab. This collaboration between a surgeon and a rehab expert is unique in that it allows us to bridge patient care from treatment through recovery. Excited about the work being done at @PrecisionRecInc and our other collaborations. Check out what we're working on in the link below. precisionrecovery.com/

A new two-year data from the VNS-REHAB trial, now published in @GreenJournal show that improvements in upper-limb function, daily activities and quality of life following @vivistimsystem Paired VNS Therapy were sustained for at least two years. The formal publication of these findings further validates the durability of our observed in-clinic results and, I believe, will help expand access to this technology for more stroke survivors who could benefit. These findings are consistent with what I've observed in patients treated through our Vivistim Program at @MountSinaiNeuro, and offer meaningful hope for continued recovery, even years after a stroke.

A little background on how I got into #cerebrovascular #neurosurgery.

An honor to present at #LINC2026 in Paris and share insights from my talk on “From Evidence to Experience: TRUFILL™ in MMA Embolization for cSDH.” Grateful for the opportunity to discuss this evolving area with colleagues and friends from around the world. #Cerebrovascular @_AdnanSiddiqui @AdamArthurMD @LINNConline

Looking forward to contributing & having a great year as the Chair of the @cvsection.

I'm sincerely honored to follow the legendary @krbulsara as @cvsection Chair. I've learned so much from him, he inspires me constantly, and I hope to continue the great work he's accomplished as Chair of the #CVSection. Excellent speech! 👏 Ft. @BrianHoward_MD, @DrMichaelLevitt, @bainmd, @StavTjoumakaris, John Russin

This morning, we hosted the annual @MountSinaiNeuro Honorary Malis Lecture with @RODMDPHD from @UArkansas. She presented on her precision medicine pipeline to develop bespoke #glioblastoma treatment. Here's the link to her one of her studies ⬇️ pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3494…

We studied music therapy in the OR, and it turns out that patients feel much more comfortable when music is playing. I like to ask patients what they want us to play. Sometimes it's Taylor Swift, sometimes it's Bach. These are some of my favorite playlists. What would you pick if you were the patient? 🔗 The study: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3041…
