Rebecca A. Snyder is an Associate Professor of Surgical Oncology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Her research focuses on pancreatic and gastrointestinal surgery, with specific interests in robotic pancreatectomy techniques, liquid biopsy for KRAS mutation detection in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and patient-reported outcomes in upper gastrointestinal cancers. She has published on artificial intelligence–assisted estimation of superior mesenteric artery dissection during robotic pancreatoduodenectomy and racial disparities across the cancer treatment cascade. Her work spans clinical trial design for pancreatic cancer, surgical patient selection, and public health–oriented outcomes research.
