About Dr. Green
Dr. Jason Green completed his undergraduate training at Wake Forest University where he graduated with a degree in Biology, earning Magna Cum Laude. He received his medical degree from Duke University School of Medicine. He is currently a second-year resident in the Integrated Plastic Surgery Program.
Dr. Green's prior research has consisted of performing skin regeneration research at the Wake Forest Institute of Regenerative Medicine, examining induced pluripotent stem cell reprogramming as a Fulbright Scholar in Linkoping, Sweden, and the development of novel suture fixation in abdominal wall reconstruction research at Duke University School of Medicine. He is currently completing a project that is examining the underrepresentation of African-Americans in Plastic Surgery.
His future plans are to continue developing his general knowledge and skills as a Plastic Surgeon while thinking critically about his career plans.
