It’s a privilege to have received the SRHSB President’s Talk Prize for my presentation at the annual conference in Columbus, Ohio. I’m thankful for the opportunity to share this work with such a dedicated community, striving to improve outcomes in hydrocephalus and spina bifida. I’m also deeply appreciative of the Society’s support through the 2024 SRHSB Graduate Travelling Fellowship and look forward to continuing to work together in years ahead.
