About

Sabrina Baggioni is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of telecommunications and surgery, whose work has helped transform the concept of remote medical intervention into a tangible reality. Her primary research areas include robotic telesurgery, 5G network applications in healthcare, and transoral laser microsurgery. Baggioni’s most significant contributions lie in demonstrating the feasibility of performing complex surgical procedures from a distance using next-generation mobile networks. Her landmark studies, including "5G Robotic Telesurgery: Remote Transoral Laser Microsurgeries on a Cadaver" (2020, 49 citations) and "Operating From a Distance: Robotic Vocal Cord 5G Telesurgery on a Cadaver" (2020, 45 citations), provided the first evidence that surgeons could successfully execute delicate vocal cord operations on cadavers via 5G-enabled robotic systems. These achievements have profound implications for expanding access to specialized surgical care, particularly in underserved or remote regions. By proving that low-latency, high-bandwidth 5G networks can support real-time robotic control with surgical precision, Baggioni has laid critical groundwork for the future of telemedicine. Her work not only advances surgical robotics but also bridges the gap between cutting-edge telecommunications infrastructure and life-saving medical applications.
