About
Morgan Fitzgerald is a leading researcher in thoracic surgical oncology, with a primary focus on improving outcomes for lung cancer patients through patient-centered technologies and predictive analytics. Her work bridges the gap between surgical innovation and patient engagement, particularly in the perioperative setting. Fitzgerald’s most cited study, “Improving patient engagement, adherence, and satisfaction in lung cancer surgery with implementation of a mobile device platform for patient reported outcomes” (2020, 68 citations), demonstrates how mobile health applications can revolutionize post-surgical care by enhancing patient-reported outcomes, adherence, and satisfaction following robotic lung cancer surgery. This work has been pivotal in advocating for digital health integration into standard surgical pathways. Additionally, her development of “Nomograms for Predicting Overall and Recurrence-free Survival From Pathologic Stage IA and IB Lung Cancer After Lobectomy” (2020, 42 citations) provides clinicians with robust, individualized prognostic tools that refine risk stratification and guide treatment decisions for early-stage lung cancer. Fitzgerald’s contributions are shaping a more responsive, data-driven approach to lung cancer care, emphasizing both technological innovation and patient empowerment. Her research continues to influence how surgeons and patients collaborate to optimize recovery and long-term survival.
