Dr. Mohammed Maan Al-Salihi is a medical doctor from Iraq, currently working at the Department of Neurosurgery at Wisconsin University. Published many papers in international peer-reviewed neurosurgical journals, editor of the books published by Springer "Pineal Neurosurgery" and "Introduction to Robotics in Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery". Apart from these publications, Mohammed has devised many research courses for neurosurgical residents in Iraq at the Neurosurgery Teaching Hospital. Also, he works as a reviewer in various international peer-reviewed neurological journals. Mohammed was the first Iraqi medical student to publish a neurosurgical paper and the first to edit a book published by a prestigious publishing company. He has authored the chapter "Evolutionary Retrace of the Third Eye" and explored the evolutionary background of the pineal gland, emphasizing the "why" rather than the "how", trying to understand how this organ first appeared and why it has attained its current status. Mohammed is the editor of the first book that discusses robotics in Neurosurgery in a systematic, well-organized, specialty-based manner.
Prof. Ali Ayyad is a Senior consultant neurosurgeon currently working at Hamad General Hospital Doha, Qatar. He is also an Associate Professor of Neurosurgery at Saarland University, Homburg-Germany, and editor of the "Introduction to Robotics in Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery" book which is published by Springer. His interests encompass skull base, cerebrovascular, minimally invasive neurosurgery, and Neuro endoscopy. Professor Ayyad holds the portfolio of Director of Research at the Department of Neurosurgery in Hamad General Hospital Doha. He has to his credit, a number of publications in leading neurosurgical journals and has also coauthored multiple book chapters. He has been invited as distinguished faculty to numerous regional and international conferences and his services as a neurosurgery instructor and tutor at a plethora of workshops including micro neurosurgery and neuro endoscopy speak volumes of his keen interest as an educationist in neurosurgery.
Prof. R. Shane Tubbs is a clinical anatomist who practiced in pediatric neurosurgery at the Children's Hospital in Birmingham for 25 years. His research interests are centered around what his lab has termed "reverse translational anatomy research", where clinical/surgical problems are identified and addressed via anatomical studies. This investigative paradigm has resulted in over 1,600 peer reviewed publications. Dr. Tubbs' lab has made novel discoveries in human anatomy and many anatomical feasibility studies from his lab have been used by surgeons around the world. He has been a visiting professor to major institutions in the U.S. and worldwide. He has authored/edited over 50 books including Gray's Anatomy Review, Gray's Clinical Photographic Dissector of the Human Body, Netter's Introduction toClinical Procedures, Anatomy for Plastic Surgery of the Face, Head, and Neck, Nerves and Nerve Injuries, A History of Human Anatomy, and Bergman's Comprehensive Encyclopedia of Human Anatomic Variation. He is an editor for the 41st and 42nd editions of Gray's Anatomy and the 5th through 7th editions of Netter's Atlas of Human Anatomy, and is editor-in-chief of Clinical Anatomy, the official journal of the American and British Associations of Clinical Anatomists. Dr. Tubbs was recently named chair of the Federative International Programme on Anatomical Terminologies.
