## Resource

The doctors at Pacific Neuroscience Institute believe strongly in educating other neurosurgeons in the latest techniques for minimally invasive surgery. PNI’s Pacific Rim Master Class in Endoscopic Endonasal and Keyhole Surgery is right around the corner, coming up at the end of March. In this Spotlight Replay, we return to the episode in which Dr. Garni Barkhoudarian talks about his commitment to pay forward his own neurosurgery education. We also hear from medical illustrator and animator Josh Emerson, manager of PNI’s Neuroanatomy Lab, who tells us how people can learn about the fascinating inner anatomy of the brain through illustration. Let’s listen in!
