As a PhD candidate, you will help coordinate and carry out a multicenter study in close collaboration wi...

This PhD project focuses on improving equitable follow-up care for survivors of childhood cancer. The position is embedded in the LATER-EQUITY study, where the research team examines how socioeconomic differences influence access to and use of survivorship care. The project asks why some survivors, especially those from families with lower income or lower educational attainment, may receive less support than they need, and how care can be better aligned with their needs and health literacy. The ...

This PhD-style clinical research position at Amsterdam UMC focuses on preventing acute kidney injury after heart surgery and improving how it is detected, predicted, and understood over the longer term. The appointed arts-onderzoeker will coordinate a large multicenter clinical trial testing a kidney-protective intervention in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. In parallel, the project includes additional clinical and translational studies designed to better understand perioperative renal inju...
