About

Suffia Malik is a leading voice in surgical education, with a research portfolio that spans plastic surgery, neurosurgery, ophthalmology, and interventional neuroradiology. Her work is defined by a commitment to innovation—from evaluating the impact of extended reality simulators on ophthalmic surgical training (a meta-analysis of over 17,000 eyes) to assessing the utility of digital scribes and generative AI in medical education. She has also advanced knowledge translation through bilingual career tools, educational podcasts, and a pan-Canadian virtual patient initiative, ensuring that learning is accessible and collaborative. Her studies on hijab-wearing learners in the OR and early exposure to neurosurgery reflect a deep concern for equity and mentorship in medicine. With over 18 highly cited papers and a growing influence in both Canadian and international contexts, Malik is shaping how future surgeons are trained. Her work not only measures impact—it creates it.
