About
Dr. Jason Lamb is a rising surgical outcomes researcher whose work focuses on health equity in thoracic surgery and the comparative effectiveness of advanced lung-volume reduction therapies. His most-cited study, "Intersection of Race, Rurality, and Income in Defining Access to Minimally Invasive Lung Surgery" (2024, 5 citations), broke new ground by revealing how overlapping socioeconomic and geographic barriers—not just race alone—systematically limit patients’ access to VATS lobectomy, offering a nuanced framework for addressing disparities. In his 2025 follow-up, "Endobronchial Valve Therapy vs Lung Volume Reduction Surgery in the United States" (4 citations), he provided the first national-level comparison of these two procedures for severe emphysema, highlighting significant differences in utilization and outcomes. Though early in his career, Lamb’s work has already been recognized for its methodological rigor and policy relevance, earning him invitations to present at the American Association for Thoracic Surgery. His research directly informs efforts to make thoracic surgical care more equitable and evidence-based, making him a vital voice for trainees and clinicians committed to reducing healthcare disparities.
