About

Alexandros Moniakis is a rising investigator at the intersection of spinal surgery, medical robotics, and patient-centered outcomes. His research focuses on how emerging technologies—particularly robot-assisted systems—are perceived by the public and how these perceptions influence clinical adoption. In his most cited work, “Public Perception of Robot-Assisted Spine Surgery” (2025), Moniakis conducted a pioneering survey-based study that systematically assessed patient and community attitudes toward robotic assistance in spinal procedures. This study, which has already garnered attention in the field, addresses a critical gap by moving beyond technical feasibility to explore the human factors that shape surgical innovation. By quantifying trust, anxiety, and informational needs among potential patients, Moniakis provides actionable insights for surgeons, device developers, and healthcare communicators. His work underscores that successful integration of robotics in spine surgery depends not only on engineering precision but also on public confidence. As an early-career researcher, Moniakis is establishing a reputation for bridging clinical biomechanics with social science, ensuring that technological progress in orthopedics is matched by informed, empathetic patient engagement.
