About

Amir H. Faraji is a neurosurgeon and researcher specializing in robotic-assisted stereotaxy, deep brain stimulation (DBS), and minimally invasive surgical techniques for neurological conditions, including epilepsy. His work sits at the intersection of functional neurosurgery and emerging surgical robotics, with a particular focus on improving the precision, safety, and efficiency of complex neurosurgical procedures. Faraji's most influential contributions center on the integration of robotic systems into stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) and DBS lead implantation. His 2020 paper on robotic-assisted stereotaxy for DBS in awake patients has garnered 37 citations, establishing foundational clinical evidence for expanding robotic platforms beyond their original epilepsy monitoring applications. He has also made meaningful contributions to understanding how robotics enhances the safety of invasive epilepsy monitoring, and his more recent work investigates how operative variables influence implantation accuracy in SEEG procedures. Notably, Faraji developed structured clinical workflows for incorporating the ROSA-Brain robotic system into functional neurosurgical practice, helping standardize robotic DBS techniques across institutions. With a growing citation record and a consistent focus on translating technological innovation into better patient outcomes, Faraji represents an important voice in the rapidly evolving field of robotic neurosurgery.
