Expertise & Research Interests
Dr. Wu is a fellowship-trained neurosurgeon who specializes in treating epilepsy, movement disorders, and chronic pain. With a background in computer and biomedical engineering, he is also able to bridge the fields of engineering, design, and neuroscience to treat patients more effectively. He has a special interest in integrating advanced imaging of the brain and noninvasive methods of brain mapping into his clinical practice. This philosophy enables him to not only deliver better health outcomes, but also gain deeper insight into the structure and function of the brain.
