Fellowship Position for Quality of Life
il y a 3 jours
As an independent, non-governmental, non-profit cancer research Organisation established under the laws of Belgium, its mission is to coordinate and conduct international translational and clinical research to improve the standard of cancer treatment for patients.
EORTC aims ultimately to increase people’s survival and quality of life by testing new therapeutic strategies based on existing drugs, surgery, and radiotherapy. EORTC also helps develop new drugs and approaches in partnership with the pharmaceutical industry and in patients’ best interests.
In addition to independence, EORTC is recognised for scientific and methodological rigor bringing robust datasets to doctors and patients for therapeutic improvement. EORTC covers all disciplines to fight against cancer. EORTC research leaves no one behind and addresses all patients, including patients with rare tumours and specific patient populations.
The EORTC Quality of Life (QoL) Department offers a One-year research fellowship (renewable to a maximum of 3 years) to an early career researcher on the topic of guidelines for assessing quality of life data in cancer clinical trials. This project aims to update the QLG guidelines for assessing QoL data in EORTC clinical trials. The project offers the chance to gain experience of working in a multi-disciplinary setting undertaking research in the fields of quality of life, statistics, oncology, and clinical trials. The health-related quality of life in cancer clinical trials is measured using psychometrically validated questionnaires and analyzed using various statistical methods ranging from linear mixed models to survival analysis.
