About
Lauren Dewey is a leading researcher in urologic oncology, with a primary focus on improving patient-reported outcomes and quality of life for men undergoing prostate cancer treatment. Her key research areas center on the clinical integration of validated measurement tools, specifically the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC), to capture real-world patient experiences following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. Dewey’s major contribution lies in demonstrating the feasibility and clinical utility of the EPIC-CP, a short, point-of-care questionnaire that comprehensively measures health-related quality of life. Her seminal 2016 paper, which has garnered over 30 citations, provided critical evidence that this streamlined tool can be effectively implemented in routine clinical practice, enabling surgeons to systematically assess and address patient concerns regarding urinary, bowel, sexual, and hormonal function. This work has helped bridge the gap between research and clinical care, empowering clinicians to make more informed, patient-centered decisions. Dewey’s research is widely recognized for its practical impact, making her a key figure in the movement toward integrating patient-reported outcomes into standard oncologic care.
