In the first half of the show we talk to Andrew Masica, M.D. and Jasmine Tiro, PhD about a joint collaborative study from UT Southwestern Medical Center and Texas Health Resources to study the impact of Covid-19 on North Texas.
The DFW COVID-19 Prevalence Study aims to enroll approximately 45,000 Dallas and Tarrant County residents from across the entire spectrum of diversity in our community, as well as occupations at higher risk for exposure such as grocery store and airline employees. The range of socioeconomic status as well as diverse racial and ethnic communities will be surveyed and tested for active COVID-19 infection and evidence of past infection, then followed over time to provide insights into how individuals’ immune responses evolve and how hot spots emerge in the community.
In the second half of the show, a fascinating conversation with Anthony Maioriello, M.D., Assistant Professor in the Department of Neurological Surgery at UT Southwestern Medical Center specializing in spine and neurosurgical disorders, including aneurysms.
Dr. Maioriello is part of The Neurosurgery Group at Texas Health Presbyterian Dallas, where he incorporates some of the latest brain surgery techniques to save people from aneurysms and stroke.
If you’ve ever used the expression, “it’s not brain surgery,” this conversation is for you!
