Incredible talk by Dr. Zaghloul at @UTSWBrain I was a sub-I at the NIH Surgical Neurology Branch in 2024, learning directly from him during his temporal lobectomies. @UTSWBrain truly offers a unique environment where the OR becomes a hub for world-class neuroscience research.
"We look forward to welcoming neurosurgeon @DoctorZada - Professor & Residency Director @NeurosurgeryUSC, Surgical Director @USCBTC, & #BrainTumor & #Pituitary specialist - on Thursday 1/8/2026 at 5:30pm @utswclements! @UTSWMedCenter @UTSWBrain #Neurosurgery"
Congrats to this team that was awarded an OBI Human Neuroscience Collaborative Research grant. The team aims to unravel how #cholinergic systems influence theta #oscillations that are crucial for #memory formation, attention, and coordination between different #brain regions.
A North Texas man who suffered a stroke in 2023 was not satisfied with the progress of his recovery, so he decided to seek treatment at UT Southwestern. Our rehabilitation experts devised a plan and helped him get back to his passion of playing Santa. cbsn.ws/4sfaHAf
Our 2025 holiday door decoration is up! 🎄🎅 Credit to our incredibly talented lab manager, @swativarshney19, and the team for bringing it to life. Wishing everyone a happy holiday season and a wonderful new year! ✨ @UTSWNeurosci @UTSWBrain @UTSWInternalMed
Drs. Marc Diamond, Brendan Kelley, and Vibhash Sharma were awarded a new OBI clinical neuroscience research team grant. The team aims to establish blood-based biomarkers that could serve as sensitive detection tools and a way to monitor #neurodegenerative disease progression.
Yunsun Nam, Ph.D., Professor of Biochemistry and Biophysics and an OBI Investigator, will receive the @TAMESTX 2026 Edith and Peter O’Donnell Award in Biological Sciences for her groundbreaking work on #RNA-protein interactions. Learn more about Dr. Nam. bit.ly/4q3rZ1c
