Jason Aubrey

About

Jason Aubrey is a surgical researcher whose work centers on advancing hernia repair techniques and shaping the future of surgical education. His most notable contribution is the development of the "combined open-robotic ‘sandwich’ repair" for flank hernias, a novel, minimally invasive approach detailed in his 2024 case series of 10 patients. This work demonstrates his commitment to improving patient outcomes through technical innovation. Aubrey’s research also makes a significant impact on how surgeons are trained. He is a key contributor to a major 2025 bibliometric study that provides a 25-year retrospective analysis of Canadian plastic surgery research, offering critical insights into the field's evolution and influence. His broader portfolio, presented at the C-CASE 2024 conference, explores a wide range of educational topics, from the utility of digital scribes and extended reality simulators to the effectiveness of near-peer tutoring and career orientation tools. While his individual paper citations are early indicators, his work is foundational to ongoing discussions in surgical pedagogy and technique, marking him as a rising voice dedicated to both operative excellence and the systematic improvement of surgical training.
