About
Anya L. Greenberg is a surgeon-researcher whose work spans two dynamic and clinically significant fields: surgical education innovation and colorectal cancer health equity. Her research has made meaningful contributions to how the next generation of surgeons engages with robotic technology, while simultaneously interrogating the systemic disparities that shape cancer outcomes across racial and ethnic lines. Greenberg's most widely cited work includes a 2023 investigation into racial and ethnic disparities in colon cancer management, which takes a notably granular approach by examining multiple points across the care continuum rather than isolating a single demographic or clinical domain. This study, along with her parallel focus on robotic surgical training, reflects a researcher committed to improving both access and quality of care. Her educational research is particularly forward-thinking. Through feasibility studies and simulation-based curricula, Greenberg has pioneered frameworks for integrating medical students into robotic surgical environments—a notoriously difficult space for learner participation. Her work on bedside assist simulations and laparoscopic engagement strategies addresses a genuine gap in surgical education. With citations accumulating across multiple studies published within a concentrated two-year period, Greenberg is emerging as a productive and impactful voice in academic surgery, bridging technical innovation with equity-minded clinical scholarship.
