Dimitrios Stefanidis conducts research in surgical practice and training, focusing on how surgeons are educated and how minimally invasive and robotic operations can be improved. A major strand of the work examines bariatric surgery (weight-loss operations) and its outcomes, including disparities in who receives care and tools for predicting surgical risk. The research also addresses practical clinical issues such as robotic vs. laparoscopic techniques and surgeon working conditions.
