Pennsylvania State UniversityUnited States

Jay Raman serves as Professor and Chair of the Department of Urology and Professor in the Department of Surgery at Penn State College of Medicine, with additional affiliation at the Penn State Cancer Institute where he contributes to cancer control research. His clinical and academic leadership spans urologic oncology, surgical innovation, and healthcare policy initiatives. Dr. Raman's research centers on Transitional Cell Carcinoma (bladder cancer) and Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma , with extensive work on nephroureterectomy outcomes, local ablation techniques, and renal preservation strategies. He actively investigates prostate cancer diagnostics , comparing transperineal versus transrectal biopsy approaches, while addressing systemic barriers in surgical training through analyses of residency application fees and workforce diversity. His 2025 publications reveal a dual focus: advancing surgical precision in upper tract urothelial carcinoma management and critiquing structural inequities in surgical education. Key studies compare renal outcomes between local ablation and radical nephroureterectomy while examining how application costs hinder healthcare workforce diversity, demonstrating his commitment to both clinical innovation and equitable medical training.
