Proud of our crew representing @vumc_orthores and @VUMC_Spine_Lab at this year’s @SRS_org. Hate to miss the annual meeting for a major family event, but I know our projects are in good hands! Look out for Dr Mitchell Bowers on the fellowship interview circuit next year!

Fresh off the press in JBJS! Honored to be a part of this work.
We identified novel genetic markers linked with spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, lumbar spondylolisthesis, and pseudarthrosis after spinal fusion.

I received no mentorship when applying to Orthopaedic summer programs as an MS-1. After a fantastic summer experience, I felt the need to provide the incoming MS-1s with the tools they needed to navigate this process. A big thanks to my classmates who helped make this possible!

So proud of @alexjahangir and his talk at TEDx Nashville today. His message on leadership and how to build trust in a crisis was spot on.

🚨Editor's Pick🚨
A study led by @BFStephensMD from @VUMChealth created a calculator to predict mortality in elderly #spine trauma patients.
This tool is an important development as the incidence of elderly patient spine trauma ⬆️.
