About

Biography

I treat patients hospitalized with acute neurologic conditions, specializing in stroke, seizure, encephalitis, acute peripheral neuropathies, neuroimmunology disease, and any neurologic manifestations of drugs used to treat other diseases – such as chemotherapies.

Many of my research projects focus on the use of simulations in trainee education for acute neurologic emergencies. I also conduct research on telestroke networks and transfer rates, using large publicly available health care databases in collaboration with the Division of Health Services Research at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center.

I appreciate the commitment to innovation here in The Ohio State University College of Medicine, and the readily available resources that allow me to pursue highly complex research.
