About

Dr. Irsa Hasan is a pioneering cardiac surgeon whose work is reshaping the landscape of robotic mitral valve surgery. Her research focuses on refining minimally invasive techniques, overcoming steep learning curves, and developing accessible training models to democratize robotic cardiac care. Dr. Hasan’s major contributions include landmark studies on robotic mitral valve repair, where she has demonstrated that with standardized protocols, the traditional learning curve can be eliminated—a finding supported by her analysis of over 1,400 patients. Her work on resectional techniques has become a cornerstone for surgeons adopting robotic approaches. Notably, Dr. Hasan led the development and validation of a low-cost, high-fidelity simulation model for robotic internal mammary artery harvest, using a calf fetus thorax, which promises to make advanced robotic training more accessible worldwide. With her most-cited papers accumulating citations from 2023 to 2025, her influence is rapidly growing. Dr. Hasan’s dedication to merging surgical innovation with education is setting new standards in cardiac surgery, making her a leading voice in the next generation of robotic heart care.
