Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher works at the intersection of cancer surgery, medical devices, and the psychological/physiological effects of cancer survivorship, particularly in breast and colorectal cancer patients. Publications span topics such as breast reconstruction devices, imaging techniques used during cancer surgery, and studies linking stress, inflammation, and mental health to cancer outcomes and recovery. Much of the recent work appears in collaboration with behavioral health and psychoneuroimmunology researchers, suggesting an interdisciplinary approach combining surgical oncology with the study of stress and inflammation in cancer survivors.
