About

Angela P. Presson is a biostatistician and health outcomes researcher whose work centers on improving quality of life for patients undergoing major urological and surgical procedures. Her key contributions lie in the rigorous application of longitudinal data analysis to understand patient-reported outcomes, particularly after cancer treatments. In her highly cited study on orgasmic function after radical prostatectomy (2017, 12 citations), Presson led a prospective analysis of 499 men, identifying critical predictors of post-surgical sexual health and challenging assumptions about recovery. This work exemplifies her broader impact: she designs and executes complex studies that translate clinical data into actionable insights for patients and surgeons. Presson’s research has been instrumental in shaping postoperative counseling and expectations, with her papers frequently cited in urology and surgical quality-of-life literature. Her methodological expertise—spanning mixed models, survival analysis, and causal inference—makes her a sought-after collaborator. By centering patient voices through validated questionnaires, Presson has advanced a more nuanced understanding of recovery, ensuring that functional outcomes are measured with the same precision as survival.
