Chicago Institute of Neurosurgery and Neuroresearch

The Chicago Institute of Neurosurgery and Neuroresearch (CINN) is a premier medical organization dedicated to the advanced treatment of complex brain and spine disorders. Founded in 1987 by Dr. Leonard Cerullo, the institute provides a multidisciplinary approach to neurological care, integrating neurosurgery, neurology, and specialized rehabilitation services. CINN is recognized for its pioneering work in minimally invasive surgery and was among the first in the Midwest to utilize Gamma Knife radiosurgery for non-invasive brain treatment. The institute also functions as a significant research hub, participating in numerous clinical trials for conditions such as glioblastoma, Parkinson's disease, and vascular malformations. Through its affiliations with major Chicago-area hospitals, CINN continues to be a center for excellence in neurosurgical education and patient care.
