Open PhD Positions

1. Medical Physics – Focus on Dosiomics

In this PhD project, the candidate will work on the development and clinical integration of dosiomics—the extraction and analysis of high-dimensional features from 3D dose distributions in radiotherapy.

The project will involve:

  • Methodological development of dosiomic feature extraction
  • Integration with radiomic and clinical data
  • Federated machine learning methods for multicenter outcome prediction
  • Retrospective clinical evaluation in collaboration with the University Hospital

This position is ideal for candidates interested in applying data science and AI to improve radiotherapy treatment quality and personalization.


2. Medical Physics – Focus on IGRT

This PhD project centers on novel strategies for image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT), with an emphasis on motion management, treatment monitoring, and AI-assisted image analysis.

Key research areas include:

  • Analysis and fusion of multi-modal imaging (CT, CBCT, surface imaging, etc.)
  • Development of algorithms for patient positioning, motion prediction, and adaptive therapy
  • Exploration of 4D imaging, deformable registration, and real-time tracking
  • Potential clinical translation within an active radiotherapy department

This position is ideal for candidates passionate about imaging, algorithms, and technological innovation in cancer treatment.
