Research summary
AI-generated

Sara K. Rasmussen's work centers on pediatric surgery, with particular attention to complex procedures such as kidney and liver transplantation, pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation, and minimally invasive/robotic surgery in children. Much of the research documents surgical techniques, complications, and outcomes, often drawing on multi-center registries (such as NSQIP-Pediatric and the Starzl Network) to identify factors linked to adverse events. A prospective student would be working in a clinically-oriented surgical research setting focused on improving outcomes for pediatric patients undergoing organ transplantation and abdominal surgery.
