About
Jamie Murphy is a surgical researcher whose work sits at the intersection of colorectal surgery, oncology, and perioperative care. With a focus on advancing surgical techniques and optimizing patient outcomes, Murphy has made notable contributions to the understanding of minimally invasive approaches in the management of complex conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Murphy's most-cited work, a 2018 systematic literature review published with 32 citations, rigorously evaluated the perioperative outcomes and cost-effectiveness of robotic colorectal resections in IBD patients, synthesizing evidence across major databases including PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. This review has become a valuable reference point for surgeons and clinical decision-makers navigating the rapidly evolving landscape of robotic surgery. More recently, Murphy has turned attention to the mechanisms underlying cancer recurrence following curative colorectal surgery. The FLICOR trial protocol, published in 2023, investigates whether perioperative intravenous lidocaine can mitigate the surgical stress response and reduce the proliferation of circulating tumour cells — a novel and potentially practice-changing research direction. Collectively, Murphy's body of work reflects a commitment to evidence-based surgical innovation and meaningful improvements in colorectal cancer and IBD care.
