About

Nicole Campion is a leading researcher at the intersection of healthcare and environmental sustainability, focusing on the life-cycle assessment of medical products. Her work critically evaluates the environmental footprint of surgical procedures, challenging the assumption that biopolymers are always the greener alternative. Her most cited study, "Do single-use medical devices containing biopolymers reduce the environmental impacts of surgical procedures compared with their plastic equivalents?" (2017), is a landmark analysis that directly compared the cradle-to-grave impacts of single-use biopolymer and conventional plastic devices. This research, which has garnered 48 citations, provides essential, data-driven insights for healthcare procurement and policy, demonstrating that material choice alone does not guarantee environmental benefit. Campion’s contributions are vital for guiding the healthcare sector toward evidence-based, truly sustainable practices, making her a key voice in the growing field of green healthcare and sustainable medical device design.
