About
Jimmie Honings is a leading researcher in head and neck oncology, with a focused expertise in oropharyngeal carcinoma and shared decision-making in cancer care. His major contribution lies in pioneering patient-centered tools for treatment selection, most notably through the development of an interactive online patient decision aid (PDA) for patients with operable oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). This mixed-methods study, published in 2023, addresses a critical gap in clinical practice by helping patients and physicians navigate complex choices between transoral (robotic) surgery and other modalities. Though his work is early in its citation trajectory, with 2 citations to date, its practical impact is significant: it represents a shift toward integrating patient preferences into surgical oncology. Honings’ research bridges the gap between technical surgical innovation and the human experience of cancer care, making him a notable figure in the movement toward personalized, value-based treatment. His work is especially relevant for clinicians and researchers interested in decision science, health communication, and the implementation of digital health tools in oncology.
