About
Dr. Amer Karam is a pioneering researcher in surgical education and simulation, with a primary focus on robotic surgery training and the integration of digital technologies to enhance skill acquisition. His most-cited work, "Video-based Peer Feedback Through Social Networking for Robotic Surgery Simulation" (2014, 49 citations), introduced a novel approach to surgical training by combining video-based assessment with social networking platforms. This study demonstrated the feasibility and effectiveness of peer feedback in accelerating the learning curve for robotic surgical skills, addressing a critical challenge in modern surgery. Dr. Karam’s contributions have helped shape how surgical educators leverage technology to provide scalable, accessible feedback, reducing reliance on expert instructors alone. His work bridges the gap between simulation-based training and real-world clinical performance, offering practical solutions for high-stakes environments. With a growing citation impact, Dr. Karam continues to influence the fields of surgical simulation, peer learning, and technology-enhanced medical education, making him a key figure in advancing how future surgeons are trained.
