We believe all patients deserve surgical care that aligns with their lived experience.

Our Mission

We study sociobehavioral comorbidities as core determinants of surgical outcomes.

Our mission is to rigorously measure sociobehavioral comorbidities, predict their impact, design effective interventions, and center the lived experience of patients in surgical care.
