Horia Ples is currently working as an Associate professor at the University of Medicine and Pharmacy "Victor Babeș" Timisoara. He is a leading figure in neurosurgery in Timisoara, but not only, being very recently elected president of the Romanian Society of Neurosurgery. He is the doctor which, in Timişoara, more than 20 years ago, two types of operations were performed for the first time, interventions that are now routine. In the 36 years since he first put the scalpel on a patient, he has seen thousands and thousands of brains, and yet there are still situations that excite him in the operating room.
