RESEARCH UPDATE!

A multidisciplinary team at Weill Cornell Medicine, spanning neurosurgery, neuropsychology and clinical research, published two complementary reviews that together provide a comprehensive look at how Chiari malformation type I (CM-I) affects cognition across patients’ lifespans. The work was led by neurosurgery fellow Dr. Mohammed A. Fouda in collaboration with Drs. Jeffrey P. Greenfield, H. Allison Bender and Amanda Sacks-Zimmerman.
