About
Natalie Mosley is a leading researcher in surgical simulation and robotic-assisted surgical education. Her work primarily focuses on evaluating and improving training methodologies for minimally invasive surgery, with a particular emphasis on the da Vinci surgical system. Mosley’s most influential contribution, the 2016 study "Battle of the bots: a comparison of the standard da Vinci and the da Vinci Surgical Skills Simulator in surgical skills acquisition," has garnered 26 citations and remains a key reference in the field. This research directly compared the effectiveness of the actual robotic console versus a virtual simulator, providing critical evidence that simulation-based training can effectively transfer skills to the operating room. By systematically assessing skill acquisition, Mosley has helped shape best practices for surgical curricula, reducing reliance on costly and time-intensive live tissue training. Her work is highly regarded among surgical educators and residents, offering a data-driven foundation for integrating simulation into robotic surgery programs. Mosley’s contributions continue to influence how future surgeons are trained, ensuring safer and more efficient adoption of robotic technologies in the operating room.
