Phd Candidate 'patient-related Characteristics and
6 maanden geleden
Bladder cancer is in the top ten of most common cancers in the world; in the Netherlands, each year almost 7,000 people are diagnosed with bladder cancer. Our group aims to tackle unmet needs in the treatment of bladder cancer by use of epidemiological research. We are specialized in genetic epidemiological studies, but also study non-germline patient-related factors and tumor characteristics and their relation with outcome and therapy response. We also aim to contribute to evaluation and optimization of (genetic) epidemiological analyses for prognostic outcomes and to connect molecular and population-based research.
**Tasks and reponsibilities**
- Collection and curation of available bladder cancer datasets with clinical, questionnaire, and biomarker data, including genome-wide germline DNA data.
- Collection and curation of additional features for available bladder cancer datasets.
- Literature review into patient
- and tumor-related factors and outcome in bladder cancer.
- Study of methodological challenges in prognostic research (e.g. collider and immortal time bias) and optimization of related epidemiological analyses.
- Performing statistical analyses of patient-related factors, including germline DNA variation, in relation to bladder cancer outcome.
- Reporting research findings in scientific papers and presentations at meetings.
- Writing of PhD thesis.
