Background

Dr. Ni, Duanyu was born in Shangqiu City, Henan Province, and completed his primary to senior high school studies in Shangqiu City, Henan Province. From 2006.09 to 2009.07, he successfully completed undergraduate to doctoral studies at Capital Medical University (CMU), and obtained his M.D. and Ph.D. degree, and entered the neurosurgery department of Xuanwu Hospital in 2009.07. In 2016.04 to12 he completed clinical training for neuroelectrophysiological diagnosis in Epilepsy Center of Cleveland Clinic. He focus on diagnosis and neurosurgical treatment of intractable epilepsy as well as Microvascular decompression surgery (MVD) for trigeminal neuralgia and hemifacial spasm, and selective posterior rhizotomy of spinal nerve (SPR) for spastic cerebral palsy.
