Welcome to NeuroSpine Surgery Research Group (NSURG)
Our vision is to improve brain and spinal health care through research, education and patient advocacy. Our mission is to provide comprehensive, current, and authoritative research evidence and guidelines for brain and spine pathologies, surgical techniques and innovations.
Who Are We?
What Is NSURG?
Clinical & Lab-Based Research
We are involved in multiple clinical trials, with an overall aim of optimising surgical techniques and maximising patient outcomes. Our basic science research includes development of minimally invasive strategies for fusion, techniques, biomechanical testing of new design spinal implants, as well as development of stem-cell technologies for spine therapy.
Evidence Based Medicine
The primary goal is to promote evidence-based practice amongst clinicians through the use of synthesized systematic reviews and meta-analyses based on the highest level of clinical evidence. We are the first research group to provide its members, patients and public health authorities with an organized database of systematic reviews and meta-analyses pertaining to neurosurgical and spine surgery.
Innovation
We promote the development of medical technology and advocate for improvements in healthcare. Our innovative research includes development of novel spinal implant designs, endoscopic techniques, and stem-cell technologies.
