Vacancy for a PhD student for clinical research into Angelman syndrome.
We are looking for a (physician) researcher with an interest in children with Angelman syndrome for a clinical PhD research. We are thinking of someone who has the ambition to become a pediatrician, pediatric neurologist, clinical geneticist or VG physician, but are open to candidates with a different background or ambition.
You will work in an enthusiastic multidisciplinary team of the ENCORE Center of Expertise Angelman Syndrome in the Erasmus MC Sophia Children's Hospital in Rotterdam.
The research includes a study in the Children's Brain Lab on growth and motor skills and the establishment of a European network for AS. For the latter project, you will be the driving force in setting up a clinical network with monthly clinic and research meetings, a synchronized database, writing a European guideline and genotype-phenotype studies in a large European cohort. Participation in the monthly AS clinics is also part of the work.
Good communication skills and command of Dutch and English are among the requirements, also because the research project includes international activities.
You can start in the short term for a period of 4 years with a salary in accordance with the collective labor agreement.
