Mapping the human brain | Aneela Darbar | TEDxLahoreWomen

Before neurosurgeons even pick up the scalpel, they use advanced techniques to make personalized brain maps for each patient. In this talk, Dr. Aneela Darbar offers a dramatic look at some of these techniques, ranging from functional MRIs to the placement of electrodes on the surface of the brain. Dr. Aneela Darbar is currently an Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery and Program Director for Neurosurgery training at the Agha Khan University Hospital, Karachi. She is the first US trained female neurosurgeon of Pakistan. She is a member of the Congress of Neurological Surgeons (CNS), Walter Dandy Neurosurgical Society and American Association of Neurosurgeons. She also pioneered the Women in Neurosurgery (WINS) chapter within the Pakistan Society of Neurosurgeons (PSNS) and is currently the Chairperson. She is an avid speaker at local and national conferences and has given more than 100 talks on neurosurgery and women empowerment. She spends her spare time volunteering at charity clinics for the poor and under-served people of Karachi as well as Zanzibar. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
