Academics

With professors from the University at Buffalo (UB) Departments of Neurosurgery, Radiology & Biomedical Engineering, the Canon Stroke & Vascular Research Center is truly a multidisciplinary hub.  The investigators in our lab provide mentorship to undergraduates, graduates, and doctoral students through our affiliation with UB and the Jacob's School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. 

Research Fellows

The Endovascular Surgical Neuroradiology service at UB Neurosurgery and Kaleida Health is world-renowned for its innovation and advancements in minimally invasive treatments for neurological disorders.

In collaboration with a multi-disciplinary team of scientists at the acclaimed Canon Stroke & Vascular Research Center (CSVRC), the endovascular surgical neuroradiology faculty and fellows conduct “translational” research, which involves the rapid application of treatment breakthroughs in the clinical arena. In addition, the faculty and fellows participate in numerous national clinical trials. Thus, staying at the forefront of technology and treatment.

The research fellows are hand-selected by Dr. Adnan Siddiqui and are active in clinical trials and manuscript publication. They are instrumental liaisons between the Department of Neurosurgery and CSVRC. The fellows provide insight into current clinical practices, imaging interpretation and a wealth of anonymized data.
