Jennifer Moliterno, MD, FAANS

Chief, Neurosurgical Oncology
Yale School of Medicine
New Haven, Connecticut, United States

Dr. Moliterno is a board certified, fellowship trained neurosurgeon specialized in the surgical treatment of all types of primary brain tumors. She performs the highest volume of brain tumor surgery in the state of Connecticut and routinely cares for patients seeking second or third opinions from afar. Dr. Moliterno has particular expertise in the treatment of complex brain tumors with the safe and effective use of more sophisticated microsurgical techniques, such as functional brain mapping and awake craniotomy for tumors located in highly functioning brain, as well as those arising along the skull base. Given her skull base surgical specialization, she also routinely performs microvascular decompression for trigeminal neuralgia and hemifacial spasm. She serves as the Clinical Director for the Chenevert Family Brain Tumor Center and Chief of Neurosurgical Oncology in the Department of Neurosurgery. Dr. Moliterno is also the Director of the Multidisciplinary Brain Tumor Board and Precision Brain Tumor Board and the Director for the Neurosurgical Oncology Fellowship Program, as well as the Surgical Director of the Facial Pain and Spasm Program. She is the Chair of the Lovemark Foundation Fund at Smilow Cancer Hospital, aimed at providing support for patients with brain tumors. Dr. Moliterno’s research interests parallel that of her clinical practice with a bench-to-bedside focus on the clinical implications of the genomics of brain tumors.
