About

Kenza Benkirane is a researcher at the forefront of neurosurgical robotics, with a focus on the historical evolution and clinical integration of robotic systems in the operating room. Her seminal work, "Introduction and History of Robotics in Neurosurgery" (2022), provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how robotic technologies have transformed precision, safety, and outcomes in complex brain and spine procedures. This foundational review, cited 4 times, serves as a critical resource for clinicians and engineers alike, mapping the trajectory from early stereotactic frames to modern autonomous surgical platforms. Benkirane’s contributions extend beyond historical analysis; she actively explores the intersection of artificial intelligence and haptic feedback to enhance intraoperative decision-making. Her research is pivotal in bridging the gap between engineering innovation and surgical practice, offering a roadmap for the next generation of minimally invasive interventions. With a growing citation footprint, Benkirane is recognized as a rising voice in the field, her work informing both academic curricula and clinical guidelines. For students and researchers, her scholarship illuminates how robotics can address the most pressing challenges in neurosurgery—precision, accessibility, and patient safety.
