About
Antonella Negro is a leading figure in Health Technology Assessment (HTA), with a particular focus on bridging the gap between innovation and evidence-based policy. Her key research areas include the evaluation of emerging surgical technologies, the development of methodological frameworks for HTA, and the governance of health innovations within regional health systems. Negro’s most notable contribution is the development of a pioneering method to address research gaps in HTA, first proposed in her highly cited 2010 work on robotic-assisted surgery. This framework, which has garnered 10 citations, offers a systematic approach for evaluating technologies when clinical evidence is scarce, linking innovation governance directly to the design of clinical research. Her work has had a tangible impact on health policy, particularly through her involvement with the Emilia-Romagna Region’s initiative to align the adoption of new technologies with rigorous scientific inquiry. By providing a structured pathway for assessing unproven interventions, Antonella Negro has helped shape how health systems responsibly integrate cutting-edge surgical tools, ensuring that patient benefit and evidence remain at the forefront of technological adoption.
