Studiejob - Køge

A position as PhD student for research in robot-assisted surgery and optimization of perioperative assessment of tissue perfusion is available at Center for Surgical Science (CSS) for a period of 3 years starting from the beginning of 2021.

Are you interested in robot-assisted surgery and imaging? And do you want to run a multi-center project aimed to secure a data-based decision tool for surgeons during colorectal cancer surgeries? Then you might be the doctor we are looking for to a PhD project at Center for Surgical Science at Zealand University Hospital, Køge.

CSS and research

CSS consists of a group of primarily medical doctors and medical students, molecular biologists, a pathologist, data scientists, bioinformaticians, data engineers, nurses, physiotherapists and dieticians. Our aim is to improve the treatment of patients with surgical diseases, minimize morbidity and optimize clinical outcomes. Through a cross-disciplinary research approach, we utilize the full spectrum of the available health information to tailor multi-modal interventions and characterize key issues for patients undergoing surgery in order to individualize pre-, intra- and postoperative treatment.

The benefits of being a Ph.D. student at Center for Surgical Science

In CSS we are engaged in examining innovative interventions before, during and after oncological surgery. We include both clinical and translational research methodologies. As such, CSS is heading internationally projects in the development of personalized medicine in the perioperative period, why you will be part of a team, where there is good possibilities to perform research at the highest international level. To facilitate efficient research, the current PhD students in the unit actively work together to streamline applications to the ethics committee, Danish Medicines Agency etc.

Project/job description

We are looking for a skilled doctor for an ambitious PhD project, with an interest in surgery and perioperative optimization using new technology in robot-assisted surgery.

As a PhD student your daily work will be at Department of Surgery at Zealand University Hospital in Køge but also at some of our collaborating hospitals in the Capital Region. You will be the primary person responsible for a multicenter clinical study that aims to determine how measurement of tissue perfusion in a newly performed colorectal anastomosis correlates with patient outcome after major colorectal cancer surgery.

The study examines how computer vision during robot-assisted surgery can assist the surgeon and contribute to data-based decisions. You will also be involved in conducting preclinical animal studies, aimed at investigating a whole new diagnostic imaging technique for mapping tissue perfusion during robot-assisted surgery. Throughout the PhD period there will be both patient contact and laboratory work.

You will gain knowledge and experience in clinical and experimental animal research, and you will have a good opportunity for first authorships and co-authorships on publications (approx. 3 per year).

A detailed plan will be made for your PhD period, and you will be introduced to the department and undergo a thorough training before you start.
