About

Anji Wall is a surgeon-researcher whose work spans rehabilitation robotics, minimally invasive surgery, and the pioneering field of uterus transplantation. Early in her career, Wall contributed foundational research on robotic-assisted gait rehabilitation, most notably her 2004 study examining alterations in muscle activation patterns during Lokomat-assisted walking, which has accumulated over 320 citations and remains a benchmark reference in neurorehabilitation engineering. Wall's more recent and transformative contributions center on uterus transplantation as a treatment for absolute uterine factor infertility. As a core investigator in the Dallas UtErus Transplant Study (DUETS), she has helped shape both the clinical protocols and surgical techniques driving this emerging field forward. Her work documenting early outcomes of robot-assisted donor hysterectomy demonstrated that minimally invasive procurement of uterine grafts is not only technically feasible but results in successful live births — a landmark achievement. Across the DUETS publication series, Wall and her colleagues have reported on donor safety, recipient pregnancies, and the broader evolution from open to robotic surgical approaches. Her 2023 viewpoint paper reflects her role not merely as a technician but as a thoughtful architect of an entirely new surgical discipline, offering future researchers both a clinical roadmap and an intellectual framework for advancing transplant medicine.
