"I am proud to lead NASS because it is dedicated to improving outcomes across the spectrum of spine care," Resnick said. "NASS has a significant voice in this process and I am proud to represent NASS at meeting with agencies such as the CMS and the FDA, funding agencies such as the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute and on Capitol Hill, where our input has made a real difference in patient care."
Resnick is currently professor, vice chairman, and residency program director of neurosurgery at the University of Wisconsin. He is a graduate of Princeton University and received his medical training from the University of Pennsylvania. Resnick did his residency training in neurosurgery at the University of Pittsburgh, where he also earned a master of science degree in neuroscience. He has authored and co-authored approximately 200 peer-reviewed publications, 100 chapters, five books, and 60 evidence-based clinical practice guideliness related to spinal disorders. He is a principle investigator in several prospective trials evaluating the clinical and economic efficacy of common spinal treatments. Resnick's subspecialty within neurosurgery is spine surgery and his academic interest is the development and application of evidence-based spine care.
