Inside the OR w/ Mount Sinai Neurosurgery! #Neurosurgeon Stephen Miranda, MD, MS & PGY-4 Dr. Chi Le perform a posterior cervicothoracic decompression & fusion to relieve #spinalcord pressure & restore balance, hand coordination & dexterity. Thanks to their expertise, the patient is pain-free.

New in Nature Human Behaviour, Jessie R. Liu, Lingyun Zhao, PhD & @ChangLabUCSF show that the middle precentral gyrus coordinates the muscle movements required to speak, challenging the longstanding view that Broca's area controls this process: nature.com/articles/s4156…

A cognitive map for value-guided choice in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex: Cell cell.com/cell/fulltext/… - Very cool paper on hexadirectional coding in monkeys and its relation with theta and SWR.

This is such a cool idea! Instead of just doing postsurgery *rehab* have people do *prehab* before they go into surgery. In this study, six weeks of prehab led to an 85% reduction in the rate of postoperative complications!
