Through his non-profit International Neurosurgical Children's Association (INCA) he travels around the world performing and teaching brain surgery in under-served hospitals in Central and South America, south-east Asia and eastern Europe. Many first came to know him from his columns in Vice and his appearances on American news shows and international channels, including Discovery and National Geographic, among others. He is the author of two books Life Lessons from a Brain Surgeon (which became a Sunday Times bestseller) and Life on a Knife's Edge.
