About this listen

Welcome to LINNC INR Podcasts, your favorite destination for expert interviews in interventional neuroradiology, neurology, and neurosurgery.

Explore our two engaging podcasts:


🎙️ "INR STORIES: THE UNCENSORED INTERVIEWS"

Dr. Nanthiya Sujijantarat invites worldwide experts in neurointervention to discuss the difficulties they face, the complications they have had to manage, and to openly address little-discussed, sometimes controversial, or still taboo subjects.


🎙️ "MENDING MINDS"

Mending Minds is a series where cutting-edge technologies and the future of medical treatments come together, hosted by Dr. Nanthiya Sujijantarat.


🎙️ "MY FIRST, MY LAST, MY EVERYTHING..."

Let yourself be carried away through the personal journey of world leaders and pioneers in the fields of interventional neuroradiology, neurology, and endovascular neurosurgery.


Among other experiences and confidences, we will bring you through the 3 cases that have marked their professional career: from the very first to the very last case, passing by the most enriching and challenging. Find out how these cases have influenced their entire career.

  • INR stories: Rodrigo Rivera's uncensored interview

    INR stories: Rodrigo Rivera's uncensored interview
    Apr 8 2026
    In this episode of INR Stories, Nanthiya Sujijantarat welcomes Rodrigo Rivera, chief of diagnostic and interventional neuroradiology at the Instituto de Neurocirugía Dr. Asenjo in Santiago, Chile and LINNC online editor. He reflects on his transition from neurosurgery to interventional neuroradiology, his formative training in Paris, the challenges of establishing stroke networks in South America, and his innovative work in 3D printing for vascular simulations.


    Key topics discussed

    • The transition from open neurosurgery to neurointervention
    • Establishing one of Chile's first mechanical thrombectomy programs and navigating public health funding
    • The technical landscape of neurointervention in Chile and the advantages of the public hospital network
    • Developing 3D-printed AVM models and AI algorithms to better understand and train for complex nidus architectures
    • Future frontiers: the integration of robotics, AI, BCI, and endovascular oncological treatments

    Mar 5 2026
    In this episode of INR Stories, Nanthiya Sujijantarat welcomes Johanna Fifi, professor of neurosurgery, neurology, and radiology at Mount Sinai and director of the Pediatric Neuroendovascular Program. She reflects on her journey from Trinidad to the U.S., the mentors who shaped her path, her growing focus on pediatric vascular malformations, and her experiences as president of SNIS.


    Key topics discussed

    • Lessons learned from major trials such as SELECT2 or other stroke systems-of-care studies
    • The emerging science behind pediatric vascular malformations and the importance of multidisciplinary centers
    • Common misconceptions about vein of Galen malformations and why most cases today can achieve good outcomes
    • Gender representation in neurointervention and the role of mentorship in building confidence
    • How the field may evolve: subspecialization, neuromodulation via endovascular routes, venous access innovations, and robotics

    INR stories: Ajay Wakhloo's uncensored interview
    Feb 5 2026
    In this episode of INR Stories, Nanthiya Sujijantarat welcomes Ajay Wakhloo. He reflects on his journey from early experimental work in Europe to becoming one of the pioneers of flow diversion for brain aneurysms. Ajay Wakhloo shares his vision for the future of neurointervention, from regenerative aneurysm healing and laser-based technologies to endocisternal approaches.


    Key topics discussed

    • The origins of flow diversion and how experimental observations led to a paradigm shift in aneurysm treatment
    • Innovation at the intersection of medicine, engineering, and fluid mechanics
    • Regenerative approaches to aneurysm healing and the role of laser-induced vascular repair
    • Emerging technologies, including endocisternal access, neuromodulation, and direct carotid puncture for stroke care
    • Advice for young physicians on creativity, perseverance, and building an innovation mindset
