BMA on 🔥: 1) 26% pay cut 2) 7 /10 doctors do not go into training immediately 3) "the only thing going up is burnout" 4) £14ph with £80,000 debt 5) interest brings debt to £250,000 over lifetime 6) 7 years to £50kpa for 'life & death decisions" youtube.com/watch?v=OvPdQk…

To complete our mini-series on CSF leak repair, a gasket closure technique can be used to repair the defect in expanded transsphenoidal #skullbase approaches. The defect is covered w/a dural substitute, then buttressed with a countersunk rigid implant. neurosurgicalatlas.com/volumes/crania…

Well done Luke Allen & Beate Diehl. Great work from #DCEE at #UCL

Excellent SEEG talk by Profs Patrick Chauvel, Aileen McGonigal and @BrainDocMcKhann discussing very challenging cases at #AES2019

Looking forward to going to the #AES2019 and seeing all the ground breaking work from across the world for the treatment of epilepsy!


Very privileged to have had the opportunity to observe @DrValiante and @DrKalia at the amazing @tgwhf


Excellent clinical trial. Looks like valproate, levetiracetam and fosphenytoin all have the same efficacy for Status.

If you think its inappropriate for Health Secretary Matt Hancock to be boasting about “wages growing at 3.5%” & “Conservatives helping you keep more of your money” when all NHS staff have seen massive real terms PAY CUTS since 2010 RT

Excellent work Vijay. Good to see machine-learning is beginning to make its way and benefit patients at the actual bedside. link.springer.com/article/10.100…


Great that this has now been backed up by level 1 evidence!

In a single-center, randomized trial involving 361 patients, the use of routine computed tomography after the removal of a chronic hematoma had no advantage over CT performed only in patients with clinical deterioration. nej.md/2JFfoSL



Supramaximal resections of GBMs conveys survival benefit. #ParadigmShift. Can be made even safer with smart surgery!

#AES2018 I have the pleasure of demonstrating how computer assisted planning for SEEG electrode insertion can save time and improve implantation safety. Hope to see you there!
