About
Dr. Todd M. Larson is a urologic surgeon and educator whose research focuses on robotic surgical training and simulation-based assessment in residency education. His most-cited work, "Assessment of Robotic Simulation by Trainees in Residency Programs of the Southeastern Section of the American Urologic Association" (2013), with 18 citations, represents a foundational contribution to understanding how robotic simulation tools are perceived and utilized by urology residents. This study provided critical early insights into the integration of simulation into surgical curricula, highlighting gaps in standardized training and the need for objective skill assessment. Dr. Larson’s work has helped shape discussions around competency-based education in minimally invasive surgery, influencing how residency programs adopt robotic platforms. By evaluating trainee perspectives, he has advanced the field’s understanding of effective pedagogical strategies for complex surgical technologies. His research underscores the importance of simulation in improving patient safety and surgical outcomes, making him a key voice in the evolution of urologic training.
