About
Monica Prasad-Hayes is a leading gynecologic oncologist whose research focuses on optimizing surgical management and outcomes for patients with endometrial and ovarian cancers. Her most impactful work challenges traditional approaches to lymph node assessment in high-risk endometrial cancer. In her widely cited 2023 study, she demonstrated that sentinel lymph node biopsy—a less invasive technique—yields comparable oncologic outcomes to full lymphadenectomy, potentially reducing surgical morbidity without compromising survival. This contribution has significant implications for clinical practice, offering a paradigm shift toward more personalized, less aggressive surgery. With over a dozen citations already, this work is gaining rapid traction in the field. Dr. Prasad-Hayes is also recognized for her expertise in minimally invasive surgery and her commitment to advancing equitable cancer care. Her research bridges the gap between evidence-based innovation and real-world patient benefit, making her a respected voice in gynecologic oncology. For students and researchers, her work exemplifies how rigorous comparative effectiveness studies can directly shape surgical standards and improve quality of life for women with gynecologic malignancies.
