Research Interests:

My research interests revolve around the use of stem cell transplantation for the treatment of human spinal cord injury. Our initial study in 8 human subjects has previously been published in Neurotrauma. We have a new study, probably starting in 2006. I also work extensively in the surgical technique and device development for minimally invasive spine surgery. Current research endeavors there include the analysis of muscle function following minimally invasive spinal surgery compared to open surgical procedures.
