PhD job offer placement within the MSCA project RAPTOR
The
RAPTOR - Real-time Adaptive Particle Therapy Of canceR Innovative Training Network (ITN) is recruiting 1 highly
motivated PhD student to work on
Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Enhancement.
Introduction
Proton therapy (PT) is an advanced type of radiotherapy used to treat a constantly rising number of cancer patients.
PT allows to target tumours with a high accuracy while sparing healthy surrounding tissue from dose. However,
changes in anatomy or positioning and organ motion give rise to uncertainties which need to be further minimized
to exploit the full benefits of PT. Adapting PT plans in real time has the potential to provide truly personalized
treatments, allowing for better target control and less toxicity. The main objective of RAPTOR is to advance the PT
for real-time use.
The Early Stage Researchers (ESRs) recruited in RAPTOR will conduct research projects at both academic and non
- academic health care facilities which will sharpen their focus on clinical needs with respect to real-time adaptive PT.
The active involvement of industry ensures that the transfer of industry-relevant skills is an integral part of individual
ESR projects. This will guarantee rapid translation of clinical needs into innovative and marketable solutions.
RAPTOR aims to train a new generation of researchers, enabling a paradigm shift from treatment approaches that
are manual and stepwise to those that are automatic and seamless, while assuring standardized clinical
implementation of real-time adaptive PT.
The recruited ESRs will acquire a broad range of advanced and transferable skills within a unique, innovative,
multidisciplinary and inter-sectoral training environment. Regular training schools and secondments to other EU
academic and industrial partners will allow them to develop a broad range of valuable transferable skills.
