I currently serve as President of the Academic League of Neurosurgery and Neurology (LANGRU) and I am actively involved in research focused on spine disorders, neuro-oncology, and evidence-based medicine. I have participated in international academic activities, including clinical observerships and scientific presentations, and I am building a research portfolio aimed at pursuing residency training in the United States.
