Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Jumin Sunde, an Associate Professor in Otolaryngology at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, focuses on reconstructive surgery, particularly in head and neck cancer treatment. His research investigates outcomes and methodologies for free tissue flap reconstruction, including virtual surgical planning for mandibular reconstruction and functional outcomes in elderly patients undergoing free flap surgery. Sunde has also examined specific surgical techniques, such as venous drainage in radial forearm free flaps and donor site morbidity comparisons between radial forearm and fibula free flaps for mandibular reconstruction.

His work also extends to head and neck cancer surveillance, evaluating the utility of computed tomography and clinical exams. Sunde has co-authored publications with key collaborators Deanne King, Emre Vural, and James Reed Gardner, all from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 8, with 52 total publications and 413 total citations.
