PhD project: Quality of life in patients with incisional or parastomal hernia - Does surgery help

 

A position as PhD (a PhD fellowship) for research of “Quality of life in patients with incisional or parastomal hernia”, is offered at the department of surgery, Zealand University Hospital and Center for Surgical Science in a period of 3 years starting Primo 2025.

 

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.

 

Project/Job Description
This PhD research project focuses on patients with incisional or parastomal hernias. Ventral hernia repair is a common surgical procedure, but it remains unclear which patients benefit most from surgery and to what extent surgery alleviates the symptoms that are associated with the hernias.

The aim of this project is to evaluate the quality of life in patients with incisional or parastomal hernias, comparing those who undergo surgery with those who do not. The goal is to identify which patients benefit most from surgical intervention, ultimately enabling more precise and effective treatment planning for hernia patients.

This PhD project closely reflects real-world surgical decision-making and examines how these decisions impact patient outcomes. The findings are expected to provide valuable insights for the surgical community.

As part of this role, you will gain comprehensive experience in clinical research, including data presentation. Your research will be supported at every stage by a team of highly dedicated academics, clinicians, and researchers.

 

Qualifications

  • You must hold a master’s degree.
  • You must be qualified to work as a surgical resident in fellowship
  • Applicants with surgical, RedCap and research experience are preferred

 

You are required to possess good communication skills in Danish and English and to be a visible, involved participant in the unit’s activities, and willing to engage in collaborations across sectors.

Application must include
