Brian L. Hoh, MD, FACS, FAHA, FAANS, is the William Merz Associate Professor of Neurological Surgery, a Joint Associate Professor of Radiology, and a Joint Associate Professor of Neuroscience. Dr. Hoh is Associate Program Director of Neurological Surgery and Director of the ACGME-accredited Fellowship in Endovascular Surgical Neuroradiology, one of the few ACGME-accredited neuroendovascular fellowships in the country. He obtained his undergraduate degree with honors at Stanford University. He then attended Columbia University for his medical degree where he was elected admission to Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) honor society. He completed his internship in surgery, residency in neurological surgery, and fellowship in endovascular neurosurgery and interventional neuroradiology at Harvard University at the Massachusetts General Hospital. He received the Boston Neurology Society's Stanley Cobb award and the New England Neurosurgical Society's William Scoville award for his research on aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). In 2009, he was awarded the American Association of Neurological Surgeons Robert D. Florin Award for socio-economic research of aneurysms. In 2012, he was awarded the American Association of Neurological Surgeons Byron Cone Pevehouse Award for socio-economic research.
Dr. Hoh has received numerous grants in support of his research efforts. He won the Anspach 2006 Research Award for his research on carotid stenosis, and the American Association of Neurological Surgeons 2007 Young Clinician Investigator Award for his research on aneurysms. In 2009, he won the Anna Orthwein Chair of Research from the Brain Aneurysm Foundation. In 2009, he was awarded a Mentored Clinical Scientist Development Award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Dr. Hoh was awarded the Thomas H. Maren Junior Investigator award for 2010 for his research on tissue engineering therapies for cerebral aneurysms. In 2012, he was awarded a University of Florida Opportunity Fund Award for research on the genetics of clopidogrel (Plavix) efficacy in patients with stroke. He has published over 120 peer reviewed papers and four book chapters. He has made over 150 presentations at scientific meetings.
Dr. Hoh is the senior principal investigator of an international multicenter trial for patients with large and giant intracranial aneurysms (PAC for Large and Giant Aneurysms) which began enrolling patients worldwide in 2008.
In 2012, Dr. Hoh was appointed to the Editorial Board of the Journal of Neurosurgery.
Dr. Hoh is board-certified by the American Board of Neurological Surgery. He is a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, a Fellow of the American Heart Assocation, and a member of the Stroke Council. He is Treasurer of the Joint AANS/CNS Cerebrovascular Section, a senior member of the Society for Neurointerventional Surgery (formerly the ASITN), a member of the Congress of Neurological Surgeons, a member of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, a member of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, and a member of the Florida Neurosurgical Society.
Dr. Hoh performs both direct surgical procedures (craniotomy, aneurysm clipping, carotid endarterectomy, EC-IC bypass, and surgical resection of AVMs, cavernous malformations, and brain tumors) and minimally invasive endovascular procedures for cerebrovascular disorders (aneurysm coiling, balloon angioplasty, carotid stenting, vertebral artery stenting, intracranial stenting, AVM embolization, tumor embolization).
