About

Agostino Gemelli University Polyclinic, the teaching hospital of the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Rome, has established itself as a leading European center at the intersection of surgical robotics, minimally invasive techniques, and artificial intelligence in clinical medicine. With a research portfolio spanning gynecologic oncology, pancreatic surgery, rehabilitation robotics, and computer-assisted surgical training, Gemelli represents one of Italy's most prolific institutions driving the translation of advanced technology directly into patient care. The institution's most impactful contributions include foundational work in minimally invasive pancreas resection, evidenced by the widely adopted Miami International Evidence-Based Guidelines (478 citations), which set the global standard for robotic and laparoscopic pancreatic procedures. Equally significant is Gemelli's pioneering role in evaluating emerging robotic platforms, including world-first clinical reports on the Hugo™ RAS system for gynecological and adrenal surgery, positioning the institution as a trusted testbed for next-generation surgical technology. Beyond the operating room, Gemelli researchers have made substantial contributions to computer vision in surgery, AI-driven technical skill assessment, and shared human-robot control for prosthetics — work that bridges clinical practice with engineering innovation. Their systematic reviews on robotic-assisted stroke rehabilitation and total knee arthroplasty further demonstrate a commitment to evidence-based integration of robotics across specialties. Collaborating extensively with international consortia, Gemelli's surgical and bioengineering teams have collectively accumulated thousands of citations, reflecting global influence. Prospective students and collaborators will find a uniquely multidisciplinary environment where clinical urgency and technological ambition converge, offering rare opportunities to shape the future of intelligent, robot-assisted medicine.
