Roger Härtl, MD (Course Director) is a Medical graduate from the Ludwig-Maximilian University in Munich, Germany, and went to the United States initially because of his research interest in traumatic brain and spinal cord injury. He completed a fellowship in Neurocritical Care at the Charite Hospital of the Humboldt University in Berlin and joined the Neurosurgery Department at Cornell University in 1994 as a research fellow. His scientific work focused on the pathophysiology of traumatic brain injury and the treatment of brain edema and intracranial hypertension in brain-injured patients. He developed great interest in the application of evidence-based medicine to neurosurgery and worked with the Brain Trauma Foundation in New York on the development of treatment guidelines for the medical and surgical management of head injury. After completing his Neurosurgery residency at Weill Cornell Medical College, Dr. Härtl went on to specialize in complex spine surgery at the Barrow's Neurological Institute in Phoenix under Dr. Volker Sonntag. Dr. Härtl's clinical and research interests focus on simple and complex spine surgery, neurotrauma, and neurocritical care medicine. Dr. Härtl believes that surgery should be part of a multidisciplinary approach to disease processes. He works very closely with other specialists in a team effort in order to achieve the best possible results for his patients.
