About
Filippo Filicori is a pioneering surgeon-researcher at the intersection of robotic surgery, artificial intelligence, and objective skill assessment. His work centers on transforming surgical quality through data-driven methods, particularly in robotic-assisted procedures for bariatric surgery and inguinal hernia repair. Filicori has been instrumental in developing automated surgical phase recognition using deep learning and computer vision, demonstrating that AI can reliably analyze video-recorded surgeries for workflow analysis—a breakthrough with implications for training and safety. His highly cited 2022 review on objective assessment of robotic surgical skills (33 citations) established a foundational framework for the field. Filicori also leads efforts to reduce bias in surgical evaluation, showing that blinded intraoperative skill assessments eliminate gender-based disparities. His contributions extend to real-time edge computing for the operating room and monocular 3D tooltip tracking, pushing the boundaries of what is possible with minimal hardware. As a member of the SAGES AI task force, he has helped shape standards for video acquisition technologies. With over 150 citations across his most influential works, Filicori is a driving force in making robotic surgery safer, more equitable, and more intelligent.
