About
Jesse Dove’s research lies at the intersection of surgical simulation, robotic systems, and health care innovation, with a focus on improving both clinical training and patient safety. In a landmark 2012 study, Dove demonstrated that simulation-based training for bedside assistants could significantly enhance the performance of even highly experienced robotic prostatectomy teams—those with over 1,000 cases—challenging the assumption that veteran teams have little to gain from structured simulation. This work, cited 37 times, has influenced how robotic surgery programs approach team-based skill development. More recently, Dove explored the use of collaborative robots in health care settings, conducting preliminary feasibility experiments in a simulated COVID-19 ICU patient room. This 2020 study, with 22 citations, showed that robotic systems could safely perform effector tasks typically done by health care workers, reducing their exposure to infectious environments and conserving personal protective equipment. By bridging simulation training and real-world robotic applications, Dove’s work has advanced both surgical education and pandemic-response preparedness, marking a notable contribution to the future of technology-enhanced health care.
