H. Isaac Chen, MD, has joined Penn Neurosurgery as an Assistant Professor.
Dr. Chen received his undergraduate degree in biochemical sciences from Harvard University; subsequently, he received his medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania. He then completed an internship in general surgery and his residency in neurosurgery at the University of Pennsylvania.
Dr. Chen’s clinical interests include the surgical management of tumors in eloquent brain areas, post-traumatic epilepsy, and traumatic brain injury. His laboratory research focuses on developing novel strategies for repairing brain damage using a combination of stem cell biology, tissue engineering, and neural-electric interfaces.
Dr. Chen is also engaged in research efforts to improve intraoperative brain mapping and to understand brain plasticity after brain injury.
Dr Chen is board certified in neurological surgery. He sees patients at Penn Medicine University City, a facility of Penn Presbyterian Medical Center.
