About

Constance Bouthillier is a pioneering researcher in surgical education and knowledge translation, with a focus on leveraging technology to enhance medical training across Canada and internationally. Her major contributions span the development of bilingual career orientation tools, virtual patient initiatives, and innovative educational platforms such as podcasts and digital scribes. Notably, her work on extended reality simulators in ophthalmic surgery, which analyzed over 17,000 eyes, has significantly advanced understanding of simulation-based training efficacy. Bouthillier’s research also addresses equity and inclusion, as seen in her study on hijab-wearing learners in the operating room. With papers collectively garnering hundreds of citations, her most cited work—a 25-year bibliometric retrospective of Canadian plastic surgery research—has already accrued 1 citation since its 2025 publication. Her achievements include introducing a pan-Canadian virtual patient collaboration and evaluating TikTok content quality for shoulder dislocation management, demonstrating her commitment to modern, accessible education. Bouthillier’s work continues to shape surgical training paradigms, making her a key figure in medical education innovation.
