About

Dr. Lindsey Sanders is a leading authority in surgical biomaterials, with her work centering on the development and clinical translation of advanced adhesives, sealants, and hemostats. Her most-cited paper, "Clinical Applications of Surgical Adhesives and Sealants" (2014, 90 citations), provides a definitive overview of the rapidly expanding landscape of topical surgical devices, critically analyzing their evolving role as alternatives to traditional sutures. Dr. Sanders’ research has been instrumental in identifying the specific clinical gaps that no single device currently fills, particularly as minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures demand new solutions for tissue approximation and hemostasis. Her contributions have helped shape the regulatory and practical frameworks for these technologies in both the United States and Europe. By systematically evaluating the strengths and limitations of these biomaterials, Dr. Sanders has guided surgeons toward more informed, evidence-based choices in the operating room. Her work continues to influence the next generation of surgical sealants, making her a pivotal figure in advancing safer, more effective wound closure strategies.
