About
Gordana Rasic is a rising surgical researcher whose work centers on the frontiers of minimally invasive pancreatic surgery and its impact on cancer care. Her most-cited study, "Trends in access to minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic cancers" (2023), has already garnered 8 citations, signaling its timely relevance in a field where surgical innovation meets health equity. Rasic’s major contribution lies in dissecting the real-world adoption of complex laparoscopic and robotic techniques for pancreaticoduodenectomy—a notoriously challenging procedure—and identifying disparities in patient access. By analyzing national trends, she has illuminated how hospital volume, geographic location, and socioeconomic factors shape who benefits from these advanced approaches. Her work not only advances technical knowledge but also advocates for broader, more equitable implementation of minimally invasive surgery. Rasic’s research is particularly notable for bridging the gap between surgical innovation and public health, offering actionable insights for policymakers and clinicians. As a young investigator, her early citation impact and focus on a high-stakes, rapidly evolving area mark her as a promising voice in surgical oncology, with potential to influence both practice guidelines and patient outcomes in the years ahead.
