About
Christian Rifbjerg Larsen is a leading researcher in surgical simulation and robotic-assisted gynecologic surgery, with a focus on competency-based assessment and procedural validation. His most impactful work, "Validity evidence for procedural competency in virtual reality robotic simulation, establishing a credible pass/fail standard for the vaginal cuff closure procedure" (2018, 25 citations), has been instrumental in advancing objective, evidence-based training standards for robotic surgery. Larsen’s research centers on developing robust validity frameworks for simulation-based assessments, ensuring that surgical trainees achieve measurable proficiency before operating on patients. By creating credible pass/fail benchmarks for complex procedures like vaginal cuff closure, he has directly contributed to improving patient safety and surgical education. His work bridges the gap between virtual reality simulation and real-world clinical competence, offering a reproducible model for credentialing in robotic surgery. Larsen’s contributions are particularly notable for their practical impact on curriculum design and certification processes in gynecologic surgery, making him a key figure in the movement toward standardized, simulation-driven surgical training.
