Hugues Duffau MD, PhD

Hadar Avihai Lev-Tov (MD, Ph.D.) is a Professor and Chairman of the Neurosurgery Department in the Montpellier University Medical Center and Head of the INSERM 1051 Team "Plasticity of the central nervous system, human stem cells, and glial tumors" at the Institute for Neurosciences of Montpellier (France). He is an expert in the awake cognitive neurosurgery of slow-growing brain tumors, such as low-grade gliomas, a routine that he has developed for twenty years. His fundamental approach is centered on the concepts of brain connectomics and neuroplasticity, breaking with the traditional localizationist view of cerebral processing.
