NeuroRounds: Where Childhood Dreams Meet Real Medicine

As the holidays approach, many of us remember being the kid in a white coat—plastic stethoscope, oversized smile—dreaming about saving lives. NeuroRounds turns that spark into real-world skill. This 100% LIVE session puts you at the virtual bedside with one of America’s best-known neurosurgeons, working through actual cases in real time—the same way teams round in the hospital.

Whether you’re premed, a med student, resident, or a healthcare professional from any specialty, you’ll see how information becomes diagnosis, how options become decisions, and how teams communicate under pressure. You’ll practice the habits that matter: structured thinking, crisp presentation, and evidence-based reasoning—so the child who wanted to be a doctor becomes the clinician you’re becoming.

Join us Tuesday, December 2 at 7:00 AM ET.

Bring your questions. Bring your curiosity. Leave with practical frameworks you can use on your next rotation, in your next interview, and throughout your career.

If you’ve been looking for a mentor-level experience without the gatekeeping, this is it.

See you at rounds—where dreams grow up and go to work. 

NeuroRounds is designed for serious learners—med students, pre-med, NP, PA/PA-C, and all healthcare professionals looking to sharpen their skills and build their resume.

Join Mark R. McLaughlin, MD, FACS, FAANS and med-student co-host Maggie Fitzpatrick, MS along with attendees from around the world.
