PhD Position on MR-guided Proton Therapy - DKFZ - Logo
The German Cancer Research Center is the largest biomedical research institution in Germany. With more than 3,000 employees, we operate an exten­sive scientific program in the field of cancer research.

The Division of Medical Physics in Radiation Oncology is seeking a

PhD Student
on MR-guided Proton Therapy

(Ref-No. 2019-0296)

Description:
We are looking for a PhD student to work in the development of a treatment planning tool for MRI-guided proton therapy. The PhD student will help to design a novel strategy for treatment planning adaptation for delivery of intensity modulated proton therapy plans in the presence of an MRI scanner. For this, the in-house open source treatment planning system matRad will be extended to incorporate the effect of the magnetic field on the proton beam. In addition, a treatment planning workflow for MRI-guided proton therapy shall be designed and verified by Monte Carlo transport simulations and experimental measurements. Finally, treatment planning studies for tumours subjected to large motion are foreseen to investigate the potential of real-time plan adaptation in future MR-guided proton therapy.

Your profile:
We are looking for a self-dependent candidate with a genuine interest in scientific programming in radiation therapy. The candidate should have a strong background in physics, mathematics, and/or computer science. Background and experience in treatment planning, Monte Carlo simulations and dose calculation are beneficial but not essential.

The position is limited to 3 years.

For further information please contact
Dr. Lucas Norberto Burigo, phone +49 6221 42-2439.
