Jana de Boniface is a general surgeon trained in Berlin, Germany, and Stockholm, Sweden.

Her clinical dedication lies in breast surgery and specifically in oncoplastic and reconstructive breast surgery, which she practices as a consultant at Capio Saint Göran’s Hospital in Stockholm, Sweden.

She is a passionate teacher with annual oncoplastic courses attracting an international faculty. As a clinical professor at Karolinska Institutet, she is well known for her large international SENOMAC trial in axillary surgery de-escalation and conducts both register-based and prospective clinical research aiming to individualise breast and axillary surgery in breast cancer to minimise its potentially negative impact on patients' quality of life without compromising survival outcomes.

Recently, she also dove into the area of exercise oncology, where she runs the largest internationally randomised trial on exercise as an addition to primary systemic therapy.

In recognition of her patient-centred and implementation-focused work, she received both the Annual Award by the patients’ national breast cancer association of Sweden and the Jubilee Award by the Swedish Medical Association in 2024.
