About Dr. Liang Gao (高亮)
In China's neurosurgical community, few names carry the weight of Dr. Liang Gao (高亮). As Academic President of Shanghai Donglei Brain Hospital (joined June 2025), Chief Expert of the Gao Liang Neurosurgery Expert Studio, and Chief Expert of the Gao Liang Neurocritical Care Center, Dr. Gao has spent over three decades redefining what is possible in brain surgery and neurocritical medicine.
Trained under the legendary Academician Lianghui Zhou — one of China's most revered neurosurgeons — Dr. Gao earned his neurosurgery doctorate at Fudan University before building a career that has taken him to the very frontier of his field. He is a Chief Physician, Full Professor, and Doctoral Supervisor at Tongji University, Nanjing Medical University, and Yangzhou University.
What makes Dr. Gao truly exceptional is his mastery of two disciplines that most neurosurgeons treat as separate worlds: complex brain tumor microsurgery and neurocritical care (NICU). He was among the first in China to advocate for the deep integration of neurosurgery and intensive care — the philosophy that the surgeon who opens the skull should also be the one managing the patient's brain through every hour of recovery.
