About
Dr. Mara B. Antonoff is a leading thoracic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical care for lung cancer through innovation in robotic techniques, perioperative optimization, and immunotherapy integration. She has made major contributions to the field by demonstrating the safety and efficacy of robotic-assisted lobectomy and anatomic segmentectomy, with her 2019 study on robotic lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer (92 citations) and her 2021 analysis of robotic segmentectomy trends (32 citations) shaping modern minimally invasive practice. Dr. Antonoff has also been pivotal in evaluating surgical outcomes following neoadjuvant immunotherapy, as evidenced by her work on the NEOSTAR study, which showed promising results for nivolumab and ipilimumab combinations in lung cancer patients (94 citations for the 2022 publication). Beyond surgical technique, she addresses critical issues in patient recovery and opioid stewardship, with studies showing sustained reductions in discharge opioid prescriptions through enhanced recovery protocols (9 citations). Her notable achievement includes bridging generational gaps in surgical education, as highlighted in her work on millennial learners (18 citations). With over 300 total citations across these key papers, Dr. Antonoff’s research continues to influence thoracic oncology practice, improving both surgical outcomes and patient quality of life.
