Suzanne Tharin
Associate Professor of Neurosurgery
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe long-term goal of my research is the repair of damaged corticospinal circuitry. Therapeutic regeneration strategies will be informed by an understanding both of corticospinal motor neuron (CSMN) development and of events occurring in CSMN in the setting of spinal cord injury. MicroRNAs are small, non-coding RNAs that regulate the expression of “suites” of genes. The work in my lab seeks to identify microRNA controls over CSMN development and over the CSMN response to spinal cord injury.

Ummey Hani, MBBS, MD
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neurosurgery
BioHani is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Stanford University in the Neurosurgical Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Laboratory. She earned her medical degree from Sindh Medical College, Pakistan, and completed her internship at the Aga Khan University, where she was recognized as Class Valedictorian and among the top five interns of 2022. She then pursued a two-year postdoctoral fellowship at Carolina Neurosurgery and Spine Associates in Charlotte, North Carolina, affiliated with Wake Forest University School of Medicine, focusing on spine surgery outcomes and biomechanics. Before joining Stanford, she served as Junior Research Faculty for neuro-oncology research at the Aga Khan University in Karachi, Pakistan.
Hani’s research spans neuro-oncology, spine surgery, biomechanics, and the application of AI/ML in neurosurgical innovation. With a deep commitment to academic neurosurgery, she is currently working towards securing a neurosurgical residency.
