About
Dr. Rachel Jones is a leading clinical researcher in psychosocial outcomes following complex pancreatic surgeries, with a particular focus on total pancreatectomy and autologous islet cell transplantation (TPIAT). Her work addresses a critical gap in the literature by systematically examining the psychological and social well-being of patients undergoing this life-altering procedure. In her landmark 2021 study, "Psychosocial outcomes 1‐year post total pancreatectomy and autologous islet cell transplant," Dr. Jones and her team administered validated questionnaires to adults, adolescents, and children—alongside their parents—at evaluation and one year post-surgery. This pioneering research, which has garnered 7 citations, provides essential evidence on how TPIAT impacts quality of life, emotional health, and family dynamics across age groups. By highlighting the need for integrated psychosocial support in surgical care, Dr. Jones has shaped clinical guidelines and inspired further investigation into patient-centered outcomes. Her work is invaluable for clinicians and researchers aiming to improve holistic recovery for patients with severe pancreatic disease.
