Congratulations to M4 Matthew Schaefer on winning the Best E-Poster Award at the Southern Neurosurgical Society Annual Meeting! 🎉 Matthew, who is pursuing our combined MD and Healthcare MBA degree, presented his research: Upfront Resection or Radiosurgery versus Delayed Resection or Radiosurgery for Incidental Meningiomas: An Economic Decision Analysis at the meeting on Marco Island. “This research is important to me because I believe personalized medicine and treatment plans are the most beneficial way to treat patients. Through this research we can see that personalized treatment plans have the added benefit of lower cost to the health system." Matthew's research was mentored by Dr. Michael McDermott, FIU Med professor and chief of the Division of Neuroscience and chief medical executive at Baptist Health Miami Neuroscience Institute----a world-renowned expert on meningiomas. #FIUMed #MedicalResearch
