About
Jing Hong is a pioneering neurosurgeon whose research focuses on advanced neuromodulation techniques for drug-resistant epilepsy. Their major contribution lies in developing and refining frameless robot-assisted asleep deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the centromedian thalamic nucleus (CMT), a technically demanding procedure that improves patient comfort and surgical precision. In their landmark 2023 paper, Hong detailed this novel surgical approach in ten consecutively enrolled patients, demonstrating its feasibility and short-term clinical efficacy. This work has already garnered 13 citations, reflecting its immediate impact on the field of functional neurosurgery. By enabling asleep DBS surgery, Hong reduces intraoperative patient distress and expands access to this life-changing therapy for individuals with refractory seizures. Their technical descriptions serve as a critical resource for surgeons worldwide, standardizing a complex procedure that bridges robotics and epilepsy care. Hong’s contributions are shaping the future of minimally invasive neuromodulation, offering new hope to patients who have exhausted other treatment options.
