About

Shreya Vinjamuri is a pioneering neurosurgeon-researcher at the forefront of robotic stereotactic neurosurgery. Her work centers on refining operative techniques for deep brain stimulation (DBS) and stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG), with a specific focus on improving accuracy, efficiency, and patient outcomes. Vinjamuri’s major contributions include the development and systematic evaluation of robot-assisted, minimally invasive, asleep single-stage DBS surgery—a technique that eliminates the need for intraoperative microelectrode recording and awake patient participation. Her landmark 2023 paper on this operative technique, cited 12 times, provides a comprehensive framework for integrating robotic assistance into functional neurosurgery. Additionally, her 2024 study on learning curves during robotic stereotactic surgery is critical for guiding surgical teams through the adoption of these advanced technologies, offering data-driven benchmarks for proficiency. Vinjamuri’s work directly addresses the translational gap between robotic innovation and clinical practice, making her a key voice in the movement toward standardized, high-precision stereotactic procedures. Her research not only demonstrates the feasibility of these approaches but also provides the practical roadmaps necessary for their widespread implementation, establishing her as a leading authority in the next generation of minimally invasive neurosurgery.
