MUSC Children's Health Neurosurgery at Summey Medical Pavilion

Dr. Libby Infinger received her undergraduate degree from the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia and her Master's in Public Health from the Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio. She went onto receive her medical degree from Northeast Ohio Medical University in Rootstown, Ohio, and completed her neurosurgery residency at the Medical University of South Carolina in 2014. Dr. Infinger returned to MUSC after completing her fellowship in pediatric neurosurgery at the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. Her clinical interests include craniosynostosis and craniofacial surgery, spinal dysraphism, Chiari malformation, spasticity, and neuro-oncology. She is involved in numerous professional organizations including the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, the Congress of Neurological Surgeons, and Women in Neurosurgery.

Dr. Ramin Eskandari grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan and received his bachelors in science in biology/neurobiology at the University of Michigan. After college Dr. Eskandari lived in Switzerland while working at a sports camp for kids. This was followed but two more years of international travel while receiving his Master's in Medical Science. He participated in research projects in artificial vision and hydrocephalus, fueling his future research interests in pediatric hydrocephalus and brain injury. Ramin Eskandari is an associate professor of neurosurgery and chief of pediatric neurosurgery at the Medical University of South Carolina. He holds adjunct positions in the Departments of Pediatrics (Child Neurology), Surgery (Plastic Surgery) and Immunology/Microbiology (Director of Pediatric Brain Injury and Hydrocephalus Research). His clinical expertise focuses on the surgical management of children with disorders of the brain and spine, minimally invasive methods for treating pediatric neurosurgical disorders, and endoscopic treatment of multiple disorders including complex hydrocephalus and brain tumors. Dr. Eskandari has always had a very fervent desire to maintain basic science research alongside clinical therapeutics. He opened the first pediatric hydrocephalus and brain jury research laboratory in South Carolina in 2014 and has maintained active research through internal, state level and philanthropic grant funding. Currently, his laboratory has invented a novel cell culture model of elevated intracranial pressure and has collaborated on a novel medical therapeutic to prevent progressive brain injury and hydrocephalus in neonates with brain hemorrhage.

Dr. Brandon A. Miller is Associate Professor of Pediatric Neurosurgery at Medical University of South Carolina and is certified by the American Board of Neurological Surgery and American Board of Pediatric Neurosurgery. Dr. Miller received his undergraduate degree in Biology at Washington University in St. Louis and then completed the combined MD/PhD training program at The Ohio State University. Dr. Miller completed his residency training in neurosurgery at Emory University School of Medicine, followed by a fellowship in pediatric neurosurgery at Washington University in St. Louis and St. Louis Children's Hospital. During his residency training, Dr. Miller travelled to Kijabe, Kenya to volunteer in a pediatric neurosurgery program for children with hydrocephalus and spina bifida. Dr. Miller has been actively involved in neuroscience research and medical education throughout his career. He has authored more than 50 peer-reviewed articles and book chapters, regularly serves on research review panels, and has mentored numerous medical students who have pursued careers in neurosurgery. Dr. Miller's research laboratory is focused on finding new treatments for neonatal brain injury and has received grants from the Hydrocephalus Association, Mission Connect Foundation and National Institutes of Health.
