Susmit Tripathi

Susmit Tripathi, MD, serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Neurology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. His clinical expertise encompasses epilepsy management and intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM), where he collaborates with multidisciplinary teams to optimize patient outcomes in complex neurological cases including epilepsy surgery evaluations and real-time functional brain mapping during surgeries.

Dr. Tripathi's educational background includes:

• BA in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, College of Wooster
• MD, Albert Einstein College of Medicine
• MS (NIH funded Clinical Research Training Program), Albert Einstein College of Medicine
• Internship in Internal Medicine, New York Presbyterian Weill Cornell Medical Center
• Residency and Chief Residency in Adult Neurology, New York-Presbyterian–Weill Cornell Medical Center and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
• Fellowship in Clinical Neurophysiology (Electroencephalography and Intraoperative Neuromonitoring), New York-Presbyterian–Weill Cornell Medical Center and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

His research pioneers the integration of innovative technologies into neurology, particularly smartphone, wearable, and implantable remote monitoring solutions for epilepsy and Parkinson's disease management. He actively investigates EEG and quantitative EEG applications in critical care settings, with work spanning digital health implementation, functional brain mapping, and multimodality monitoring. Key research pillars include Healthcare Technology, Intraoperative Neuromonitoring, and Quantitative EEG, reflecting his dual clinical focus on epilepsy and neuromonitoring.

Analysis of his 15 most recent publications reveals a dominant trend since 2020 toward digital health applications in neurology, featuring systematic reviews on digital twins for precision medicine/neurosurgery and smartphone-based Parkinson's disease monitoring. Earlier works (2013-2019) demonstrate foundational expertise in redox biochemistry and gait analysis in aging populations, which informs his current translational research bridging molecular neuroscience with clinical technology implementation.

Dr. Tripathi has received multiple institutional teaching awards for his mentorship of medical students, residents, and fellows across clinical and research settings, though specific award names are not documented in available sources.

He actively supervises trainees at all levels while collaborating with multidisciplinary teams including epileptologists, neurosurgeons, neuropsychologists, radiologists, and biomedical engineers. His research likely involves grant funding focused on digital health technology validation, particularly for remote disease monitoring and intraoperative applications, though specific grants are not detailed in the source material.

Dr. Tripathi operates within integrated clinical-research teams that combine neurology, neurosurgery, and biomedical engineering to advance epilepsy surgery protocols and intraoperative neuromonitoring standards, with current projects emphasizing smartphone-based seizure tracking and digital twin modeling for surgical planning.
