About
James E. Slaven is a biostatistician and researcher whose work spans occupational health, surgical oncology, and healthcare simulation. His most impactful contribution, a 2008 study on hexavalent chromium in stainless steel welding fumes (51 citations), demonstrated that shield gas composition and welding process critically influence the generation of carcinogenic compounds, providing actionable insights for industrial hygiene. In urologic oncology, Slaven has made significant contributions through analyses of the ROBUUST 2.0 registry, showing that bladder cuff excision technique impacts outcomes after nephroureterectomy for upper tract urothelial carcinoma (9 citations), and examining racial disparities in surgical survival (11 citations). His collaborative work extends to nursing education, where he investigated robotic telepresence versus face-to-face simulation (5 citations), and he contributed to a 20-year institutional review comparing open and robotic partial nephrectomy outcomes (3 citations). With a career spanning environmental exposure assessment, cancer surgery outcomes, and innovative educational methods, Slaven’s research demonstrates versatility in applying rigorous statistical methods to improve worker safety, patient survival, and healthcare training.
