Background Analyzing kinematic and video data can help identify potentially erroneous motions that lead to sub-optimal surgeon performance and safety-critical events in robot-assisted surgery. Methods We develop a rubric for identifying task and ge...
Today’s surgeons use advanced tools and techniques to perform many procedures without large cuts. But some situations still call for open surgery, especially when speed, access or complexity matters …
Browder-Novikov-Sullivan-Wall surgery theory investigates the homotopy types of manifolds, using a combination of algebra and topology. It is the aim of these notes to provide an introduction to the more algebraic aspects of the theory (such as the...
One of the most frequent modalities of breast cancer treatment is surgery. Breast surgery can cause visual alterations to the breasts, due to scars and asymmetries. To enable an informed choice of treatment, the patient must be adequately informed of...
In this article, we consider a sufficient condition that a knot-surgery or log-transformation of $E(n)$ admits a handle decomposition without 1-handles. We show that if $K$ is a knot that the bridge number is $b(K)\le 9n$, then the knot-surgery $E(n)...
When calculating the overhead of a quantum algorithm made fault-tolerant using the surface code, many previous works have used defects and braids for logical qubit storage and state distillation. In this work, we show that lattice surgery reduces the...
Ever notice how the “small” surgery sometimes hurts way more than the big one? I see that pattern a lot—and it surprised me the first few times too. I'm a double board-certified foot and ankle ...
Surgical data science (SDS) is a field that analyzes patient data before, during, and after surgery to improve surgical outcomes and skills. However, surgical data is scarce, heterogeneous, and complex, which limits the applicability of existing mach...

While bariatric and metabolic surgery (MBS) is considered the gold standard treatment for severe and morbid obesity, its therapeutic efficacy hinges upon active and longitudinal engagement with multidisciplinary providers, including surgeons, dietiti...
