Innovation In Surgery

Surgeons are the faces of highly trained teams. The more diverse in terms of skillset and background, the better. Cross-discipline collaboration helps surgeons find clarity and overcome biases, transforming mindsets and outcomes for patients.

Neurosurgeon Owase Jeelani shares his blended team philosophy, offering insight into the UCL-based research team FaceValue, which drives innovation in craniofacial surgery, and the inspiration behind his charity Gemini Untwined, globally renowned for facilitating the separation of craniopagus twins worldwide.
