She is also Principal Investigator of Golby Lab, a surgical brain mapping laboratory. Dr. Golby has special clinical interests in brain surgery for patients with brain tumors and epilepsy, especially those lesions which are intimately associated with critical brain structures. Her translational research is focused on advanced imaging and image guidance to improve care for patients undergoing intracranial neurosurgery. She has developed numerous technologies to help guide presurgical planning and intraoperative decision making. She works closely with scientists across many disciplines including computer science, applied mathematics, MR and ultrasound physics, and biomedical engineering and is very involved with mentoring young clinicians and scientists. Dr. Golby was a recent Fulbright Global Scholar pursuing work to foster interdisciplinary collaborations between technical experts and clinicians in host countries Rwanda and Morocco.
