About
Dr. Samantha L. Brackett is a pioneering pediatric neurosurgeon whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive robotic technologies for the treatment of complex epilepsy. Her major contributions lie in demonstrating the safety, precision, and clinical utility of the Robotic Stereotactic Assistance (ROSA®) system in children—a population where such technology has been historically underreported. In her landmark single-center study of 23 consecutive pediatric cases, Dr. Brackett showed that ROSA-guided procedures achieve exceptional accuracy for stereotactic electrode placement, significantly reducing surgical morbidity while improving seizure focus localization. This work, which has garnered 28 citations, has helped establish a new standard of care for pediatric epilepsy surgery, bridging the gap between adult robotic neurosurgery and the unique anatomical challenges of children. Dr. Brackett’s research is widely recognized for its translational impact, directly influencing operative protocols in major children’s hospitals. Her dedication to merging engineering precision with compassionate pediatric care marks her as a rising leader in the field, with her findings frequently referenced in guidelines for robotic-assisted epilepsy interventions.
