Medical Student
Renaissance School of Medicine at Stony Brook University
Mr. Noah Lubin, B.S., is a medical student at the Renaissance School of Medicine at Stony Brook University. A former Division I soccer goalkeeper, he is currently completing a dedicated research year as the Daniel G. Egnor Research Fellow and laboratory manager in the Sima Mofakham–Charles Mikell Lab. In this role, he coordinates multidisciplinary research efforts within a large collaborative team of trainees and faculty, integrating artificial intelligence and computer vision methodologies to address clinically relevant problems in neurosurgery.
Mr. Lubin’s primary research interests center on coma and recovery of consciousness following severe traumatic brain injury, with particular emphasis on agitation, thalamo-cortical network dysfunction, and mechanisms of neurologic recovery. His work also includes investigation of functional neurosurgical devices, including vagal nerve stimulation to enhance memory and cognition and deep brain stimulation as a potential early therapeutic intervention for schizophrenia.
In parallel, Mr. Lubin conducts clinical spine research under the mentorship of Dr. Harry Mushlin. His work leverages machine learning and computer vision–based gait analysis to discern differences among five clinically relevant gait patterns and aims to create quantitative, data-driven approaches to improve the objectivity and reproducibility of the ASIA impairment scoring system. He also conducts outcomes studies in elective lumbar spine surgery and investigates factors influencing spinal fusion success.
