About

Jenny M. Norlin is a health economist and clinical researcher whose work bridges the gap between surgical outcomes and healthcare costs, with a particular focus on colorectal cancer management. Her research centers on cost-effectiveness analysis, comparative effectiveness research, and the economic evaluation of endoscopic versus surgical interventions. In her most-cited work, "Cost comparisons of endoscopic and surgical resection of stage T1 rectal cancer" (2021, 12 citations), Norlin tackles the complex financial implications of treatment decisions for early-stage rectal cancer, providing critical insights into the economic trade-offs between less invasive endoscopic procedures and traditional surgical resection. This study not only compares real-world costs but also models hypothetical scenarios to guide clinical decision-making and resource allocation. While her citation count reflects a growing, specialized impact, Norlin’s contributions are particularly valuable to clinicians and policymakers seeking to optimize both patient outcomes and healthcare spending. Her work exemplifies the increasing importance of integrating economic analysis into surgical oncology, making her a key voice in the evolving conversation around value-based cancer care.
