About
Stacey C. Carter is a leading researcher in surgical education and urologic oncology, with a focus on robotic surgery and prostate cancer outcomes. Her work has significantly advanced the understanding of how technology can improve surgical training and patient care. Carter's most cited study, "Video-based Peer Feedback Through Social Networking for Robotic Surgery Simulation" (49 citations), pioneered the use of social media platforms to enhance skill acquisition in robotic surgery, offering a scalable solution to the steep learning curves of novel techniques. She has also made critical contributions to assessing surgical quality, as seen in her population-based analysis of radical prostatectomy operative times (29 citations), which identified key factors influencing efficiency and outcomes. Her comparative review of robotic versus open radical prostatectomy (14 citations) provided vital insights into oncological and quality-of-life trade-offs, while her technical innovation in selective suture ligation of the dorsal vein complex (10 citations) improved surgical precision and recovery. Through these studies, Carter has helped shape modern urologic surgery, demonstrating that robotic approaches can deliver on their promise of better outcomes when paired with rigorous evaluation and innovative training methods.
