Gabriele Boccardo

I gained experience with the da Vinci Surgical Robot through simulator-based training. I conducted an introductory study of how the da Vinci Surgical Robot operates.

I attended some Surgical Procedure at Humanitas Research Hospital, shadowing Professor Federico Pessina, MD (Chairman of Cranial Neurosurgery Department):

The operations mainly included surgical treatment using brain mapping techniques, awake surgery, and minimally invasive approaches for all tumors of the central nervous system; surgical treatment of highly complex tumors involving the cranial base and the cranio-cervical junction was performed through transcranial or transpetrosal approaches.

I participated in a prosection session during my Anatomy class, which provided hands-on exposure to anatomical structure.
