About
Marisa Cobanaj is a researcher working at the intersection of surgical training, haptic technology, and computer- and robot-assisted surgery. Her most notable work, published in 2019, investigates the effectiveness of haptic devices as training tools for surgeons operating within computer- and robot-assisted surgical environments — an increasingly critical area as minimally invasive and robotic procedures become standard in modern operating rooms. Through experimental study, her research provides empirical insight into how force-feedback and tactile simulation can enhance surgical skill acquisition, offering a evidence-based foundation for next-generation medical training curricula. While still in the early stages of accumulating citations, her work has already garnered recognition within the specialized community of surgical robotics and simulation, reflecting its relevance to both clinical and engineering audiences. Cobanaj's research addresses a genuine gap in surgical education, where the transition from traditional hands-on training to technology-mediated environments demands rigorous evaluation. Her contributions position her as an emerging voice in the development of safer, more effective training methodologies for the surgeons of tomorrow.
