Research interest
include topics in Adult Spinal Deformity, Pediatric Scoliosis, Cervical Spine Pathologies and the integration of genomics into patient specific treatment plans with the used of machined-learning and Artificial Intelligence. He is particularly interested in optimizing efficiencies in the patient care continuum to improve the patient experience and optimize outcomes.
