Doris Wang, MD PhD
Assistant Professor, UCSF
"There is a training gap in the socioeconomic, medicolegal, and legislative issues which play an increasingly important role in the practice and lives of neurosurgeons and their patients. I had the opportunity to learn about these issues and make small contributions to CANS initiatives. Specific experiences included participating in CANS board meetings, assisting with the annual meeting planning/execution, helping curate the CANS newsletter, and representing CANS at the AANS/CNS CSNS Resolutions Committee meeting. As a result of my fellowship, I plan on being an active advocate for the practice of neurosurgery when my training is complete."
