About
Dr. Tadasu Kohno is a leading thoracic surgeon whose work centers on advancing surgical education and optimizing intraoperative technology. His primary research areas include simulation-based training, surgical curriculum development, and the ergonomics of endoscopic stapling devices. Dr. Kohno’s major contributions are exemplified by his role in orchestrating a landmark international Delphi study, which achieved consensus among 34 key opinion leaders from 14 countries to identify and prioritize technical procedures for simulation-based training in thoracic surgery. This foundational work, published in 2023 with 13 citations, directly informs the creation of standardized, competency-based curricula for the next generation of surgeons. Additionally, his earlier Delphi panel, convening eight surgeons from eight nations, established consensus on how endoscopic linear stapler stability impacts both patient complications and surgeon stress. Through these rigorous, collaborative methodologies, Dr. Kohno has systematically defined critical benchmarks for training and safety, shaping modern thoracic surgical practice and education on a global scale.
