Introduction

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD candidate to join our research team at Erasmus University Rotterdam and the Workforce and Sustainable Healthcare research group within Erasmus School of Health Policy & Management. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to contribute to a cutting-edge research project that explores the impact of algorithmic technologies on clinical professionalism.

Our research group is focused on understanding the complex relationships between healthcare professionals, technology, and organizational change. We are particularly interested in how algorithmic technologies are shaping the nature of professional clinical work and influencing the role, expertise, and identity of healthcare professionals.

Job Description

This PhD project will involve a comprehensive review of the literature on algorithmic technologies and clinical professionalism, as well as the design and implementation of an empirical study to investigate the impact of these technologies on clinical work. The successful candidate will be responsible for collecting and analyzing qualitative data, and writing up research articles for publication in top-tier journals.

The project will be conducted in collaboration with Erasmus University Medical Center and/or Professional Associations of various Specialist Clinicians at a European level. There is also potential to conduct a more international cross-country study, involving the Netherlands and another European country.

Project Aims and Objectives

The specific PhD project objectives are as follows:

  • To develop an empirically grounded conceptual model of how emergent algorithmic technologies interact with established infrastructures of professional knowledge, expertise, and ethical standards.
  • To study empirically through qualitative research methods how algorithmic technologies are shaping the work practices, the sense of competence, authority, relatedness, autonomy, and moral norms of clinical professionals.
  • To investigate the reshaping of new collaborations among professionals, patients, and algorithmic technologies, analyzing ongoing shifts in the production, contestation, evaluation, and institutionalization of professional status and expertise.
  • To communicate knowledge and insights gained from the project with diverse interested audiences.
  • To translate knowledge and experiences from the applied cases into concrete learning to be included into related Healthcare Workforce education and training programs.
  • To develop conceptual knowledge based on the empirical study that will contribute to organizational research on occupations and professions and healthcare management change; and,
  • To equip you, the student, with the experiences and skills needed to embark on a fulfilling career in the healthcare sector or in academia.
Requirements

The ideal candidate will have a Master's degree in a relevant field, such as Healthcare Management, Organization Science, Science & Technology, Health Services Research, Business and/or Management Studies, Sociology, Healthcare Ethics, or another relevant Master's degree. The candidate should also have strong qualitative research competence and analytical skills, excellent verbal and writing skills in English, and be a team player with a willingness to contribute to the interdisciplinary research agenda of Sustainable Healthcare and Workforce within ESHPM.

Desirable qualifications include familiarity with organization and management theory, knowledge of healthcare organizations and systems, and familiarity with algorithmic technologies, ideally applied in healthcare.

Employment Conditions and Benefits

We offer a highly competitive salary and benefits package, including a 0.8 fte - 1 fte contract for 18 months, with the possibility of extension. The salary ranges from a minimum of € 2.872 to a maximum of € 3.670 gross per month, in accordance with the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities (CAO-NU). The contract includes 41 days of paid leave, 8% holiday pay, and an 8.3% end-of-year bonus.
