Read his article, Cognitive Skills Assessment During Robot-assisted Surgery and watch the accompanying video. Guru's work was featured in the British Journal of Urology International. He has authored and co-authored over 250 several journal articles, abstracts and book chapters. His foundation supports children in government-run schools in his native home, Kashmir and an innovative Junior Robotics Surgery Challenge here in his home town Buffalo, NY. He founded a non-profit foundation in 2007 which supports health and education-related programs in Kashmir. Guru is a member of the American Urological Association, Cancer Society of Kashmir. He also leads the Applied Technology Laboratory for Advanced Surgery (ATLAS) Program at Roswell Park.ĭr. He leads the International Robotic Cystectomy Consortium with over 55 surgeon members in over 23 countries. His major interest is bladder cancer and robotic surgical education and its incorporation. Guru developed the first validated robotic surgery curriculum for safe transfer of surgical skills for future robotic surgeons. Guru developed one of the first robotic surgical simulators and works extensively in safe human-machine interface, cognitive interaction and developing safe environments during robot-assisted surgery. His research interest has also been in the application of robotic surgery for urinary reconstruction. Having performed live demonstrations of robotic surgery in 13 countries at international seminars, his experience in robot-assisted surgery, especially his 600 robot-assisted radical cystectomies, has been shared with over 400 surgeons from more than 15 countries. Guru is one of the early fellowship-trained robotic surgeons (2004) with an experience of over 10,000 surgical console hours and has performed over 3,000 procedures, pioneering the cystectomy program at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center. Guru developed the first validated robotic surgery curriculum for safe transfer of surgical skills for future robotic surgeons, and leads the International Robotic Cystectomy Consortium with over 55 surgeon members in over 23 countries.ĭr. He completed his residency training in Urologic Surgery (2005) and a Robotic Surgery Fellowship (2004) at the Vattikuti Urology Institute, Henry Ford Health System, MI. Dr. Guru, MD, has served as Chair of the Department of Urology at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center since 2017, in addition to serving as Director of Robotic Surgery since 2005.
