Vacancy: PhD position on Systems Science for Sustainable Safety in Healthcare

Vacancy for a PhD position

We have extended the deadline for our PhD-position on Systems Science for Sustainable Safety in Healthcare at the Institute for Health Systems Science at Delft University of Technology. Do you have a disciplinary background that allows you to look at safety in healthcare from a system's perspective and do you have the ambition to do a PhD, then this PhD-position may be of interest to you.

The PhD-position will focus on the role of professional and organisational responsibility towards ensuring safe care. It will consider individual professional performance and professional views on safe care as related to the healthcare system design and performance (as a sociotechnical system). For instance, the question how responsibilities are distributed within the healthcare systems, whether and where responsibility vacuums exist, and what the consequences are or may be. This includes formal responsibilities (as secured in regulations and laws and embedded within the organisation) and 'informal' responsibility (such as found within professional norms). Successively the aim is to answer the question what -in terms of responsibilities- is needed to secure safe care. While we are interested in these topics broadly, we consider a focus one of the following (use) cases: acute care, mental health, or cancer care.
