Dr Murphy's Research Work
Dr. Murphy has published research in a number of international journals, and was honoured by the Society of British Neurosurgeons in 2010 for his work on Computational Fluid Dynamics in the Peri-Aneurysmal Environment. He is the only practising neurosurgeon in Ireland to have been fellowship trained in spinal neurosurgery in the United States of America. His work with Professor Neill Wright in St. Louis involved extensive exposure as a clinical spinal fellow to primarily craniocervical junction pathologies and subaxial cervical spine pathologies.
Through working with Drs. Todd Stewart and Paul Santiago, his experience of the thoracic spine and lumbar spine was also increased. His area of interest includes all aspects of spinal conditions including degenerative, congenital, traumatic and tumour.
Anesthesiology
As a medical consultant, an anaesthesiologist works hand in hand with a surgical consultant to ensure that a patient is asleep and stable while their surgical consultant focuses on what may be a highly complex surgical procedure.
