Research Day

The Department of Neurosurgery will hold its annual Research Day, featuring two endowed lectures and a series of talks by Mount Sinai faculty and residents. The Jeannette and Bernard S. Post, M.D., Endowed Lecture was created by Kalmon D. Post, M.D., Chair and the Leonard I. Malis M.D./Corinne and Joseph Graber Professor of Neurosurgery, and his wife Linda, in 1998, in memory of his parents. The Ved P. Sachdev, MD, Endowed Lecture was established in 2001 in memory of Dr. Sachdev, the skilled neurosurgeon who taught at Mount Sinai for many years.
