About
Maria Georgi is a leading researcher in surgical education and robotic surgery training, with a focus on developing evidence-based, standardised curricula to improve surgical proficiency. Her major contributions centre on the integration of interactive virtual classroom technologies into robotic surgery training, addressing a critical gap in the field where standardisation has historically been lacking. In her landmark 2022 study, "Virtual classroom proficiency-based progression for robotic surgery training (VROBOT)," Georgi demonstrated the effectiveness of adjunctive virtual classroom training (VCT) alongside the self-directed Fundamentals of Robotic Surgery (FRS) curriculum. This randomised, prospective, cross-over effectiveness trial, which has garnered 10 citations, provides compelling evidence that interactive, remote learning environments can significantly enhance skill acquisition and proficiency in robotic surgery. Her work is notable for its rigorous methodology and practical implications, offering a scalable solution to training surgeons worldwide. Georgi’s research not only advances surgical education but also paves the way for more accessible, high-quality training paradigms, making her a pivotal figure in the evolution of robotic surgery pedagogy.
