  1. 1

    Wang D, Fang Z, Zhu A, Rettner B, Potter AL, McCarthy M, Zhang L, Wilkins IJ, et al. “Changes in patient-reported quality of life after lobectomy versus sublobar resection.” Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2025. [DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2025.10.040]

    Prospective, wearable-linked outcomes study comparing recovery trajectories after lobectomy vs sublobar resection, using patient-reported and physiologic data to inform value-based lung cancer care.

  2. 2

    Conley J, Prabhu R, Wilkins IJ, Paulson M, Yang C, Levine D. “A Roadmap for Hospital at Home Technology Prioritization.” World Hospital at Home Congress (WHAHC) 2027 Abstract (No. 178).

    Proposes a structured framework for prioritizing the technologies that hospital-at-home programs should adopt, weighing clinical value, feasibility, and scalability to guide investment in home-based acute care infrastructure.

  3. 3

    Conley J, Prabhu R, Yang C, Paulson M, Wilkins IJ, Levine D. “Effort to Unify HAH Technology Standards and Guidelines.” World Hospital at Home Congress (WHAHC) 2027 Abstract (No. 359).

    Outlines a collaborative effort to align technology standards and guidelines across hospital-at-home programs, aiming to reduce fragmentation and enable interoperable, safe, and scalable home-based care.

  4. 4

    “Use of Surgery for Screen-detected Lung Cancer in the Real World Versus the National Lung Screening Trial.” WTSA 2024 / 50th Annual Meeting Abstract (ID: 4069884).

    Comparative analysis of real-world surgical management of screen-detected lung cancer versus outcomes reported in the NLST, relevant to evaluating translation gaps between clinical trials and population-level implementation of cancer screening interventions.

  5. 5

    Duraccio KM, Lee L, Wright ID, Kamhout S, Wilkins IJ, et al. “Looking beyond sleep duration in understanding obesity risk in adolescents: the role of circadian timing and misalignment on adolescent dietary outcomes, physical activity, and body mass index.” Sleep Advances, 2026. [DOI: 10.1093/sleepadvances/zpae081]

    Demonstrates that circadian misalignment, rather than sleep duration, better predicts metabolic and behavioral risk outcomes, highlighting mechanism-driven approaches to population health modeling.

  6. 6

    Kay DB, Duraccio KM, Michels L, Siclari F, Karim HT, Davis EB, Wilkins IJ, et al. “Revolutionizing Sleep Science: A Narrative Review of the Historical Origins and Current Applications of Sleep Neuroimaging.” Nature and Science of Sleep, 2026. [DOI: 10.2147/NSS.S492585]

    Synthesizes neuroimaging advances in sleep research to improve mechanistic understanding of sleep physiology and translation of complex neural data into clinical insight.
