About
Emily Lan-Vy Nguyen is a rising leader in surgical education and medical innovation, whose work spans plastic surgery, neurosurgery, ophthalmology, and interventional neuroradiology. Her research focuses on knowledge translation, digital learning tools, and diversity in surgical training. Notably, she led a 25-year bibliometric study of Canadian plastic surgery research, analyzing trends and impact to guide future scholarship. Nguyen has pioneered educational technologies, including a bilingual career orientation tool (ExploreMD), a surgical education app evaluated across Saudi Arabia and Canada, and the podcast *Doctority Canada: Plastic Surgery*. Her systematic review of extended reality simulators in ophthalmic surgery, encompassing over 17,000 eyes, demonstrated the transformative potential of immersive training. She also examined social media quality in healthcare, finding that health professionals produce higher-quality TikTok content on shoulder dislocation. Nguyen’s work on hijab-wearing learners in the operating room highlights her commitment to equity and inclusion. With over a dozen highly cited papers and a growing citation count, she is shaping how future surgeons are trained—bridging virtual patients, AI, and hands-on skills to create a more accessible, innovative, and compassionate surgical education landscape.
