Henry Brem, M.D. is an American neurosurgeon, researcher, educator and inventor known for introducing an image guidance computer system to deliver targeted chemotherapy to intraoperative brain tumors.[1] As of 2023, he is the Harvey Cushing Professor, Director of the Department of Neurosurgery, Professor of Neurosurgery, Ophthalmology, Oncology and Biomedical Engineering Neurosurgeon-in-Chief, and Director, Hunterian Neurosurgical Research Center and Director at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, Maryland.[2] Brem has written more than 490 peer-reviewed articles,[3] 50 books and book chapters and holds 11 patents.

Education and career

Brem received his AB at New York University (1973) and Harvard University, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Department of Biological Chemistry (1974), MD at Harvard Medical School, residencies at Peter Bent Brigham Hospital (Harvard) and the Neurological Institute of New York, Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons.[4][5][6]

In 1998, he became a member of the National Academy of Medicine (NAM)[7]

Research

Brem's fields of research include neurosurgery, brain tumors, drug delivery, angiogenesis and Immunology.[8] Brem's research on temozolomide, often linked to ribavirin, involves a combination of scientific disciplines and uncovers new connections. His work also connects epilepsy surgery with meningioma and implant chemotherapy. His carmustine research addresses wafer integration, biodistribution and cytotoxicity.[7]

He is credited along with Robert Langer for co-inventing the Gliadel® wafer, an implantable device that enables direct chemotherapy placement during brain tumor surgery.[9] This has led to other novel therapies, such as chemotherapy "cocktail" delivery systems by way of electrospun fiber membranes. This technology is being developed in conjunction with Andrew Steckl at the University of Cincinnati College of Engineering and Applied Science.[10]

Grants

Brem has been the Principal- or Co-Investigator on 27 research studies focused on brain tumors and therapy delivery, such as controlled release polymers, brain-penetrating DNA nanoparticles, and enhancement of brain tumor immunotherapy.[11][12][13]
