About

Anne S. Reiner is a pioneering neurosurgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive techniques for complex spinal and paraspinal pathologies. Her primary research focus is the application of robotic-assisted surgery in neurosurgery, a field where robotic systems have traditionally seen limited use. Dr. Reiner’s major contribution is demonstrating the feasibility and benefits of robotic resection for spinal and paraspinal tumors, as detailed in her highly cited 2024 paper. This work, which has already garnered 4 citations, establishes a new paradigm for neurosurgeons, showing that robotic arm systems can provide enhanced precision and minimally invasive access to these challenging anatomical regions. By training neurosurgeons specifically for robotic procedures, she is bridging a critical gap between technological capability and clinical practice. Her research not only expands the surgical toolkit for treating tumors but also sets the stage for broader adoption of robotics in neurosurgery, promising reduced patient trauma and improved outcomes. Dr. Reiner’s innovative approach positions her as a key figure in the evolution of spinal surgery, inspiring a new generation of surgeons to embrace robotic assistance.
