Research Erasmus Medical Center – Sophia Children’s Hospital

Theme Sophia is a collaboration of the departments of Pediatrics, Pediatric Surgery, Clinical Genetics, Child and Adolescent Psychiatry/Psychology, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Gynecological Oncology, and Urology. As one of the priorities of theme Sophia is to improve health care through research, all affiliated departments are involved in extensive research in their own fields. Therefore, the Sophia Research Day, in which all these departments participate, is a great opportunity to share the most recent, important and innovative research results!

Sophia Researchers Board

The Sophia Researchers Board (SOV) represents all PhD-students affiliated with the theme Sophia at the Erasmus MC-Sophia Children’s Hospital and organizes numerous academic and social activities. Research is a key task of the Erasmus MC. Therefore, the SOV aims to optimize development and communication between the PhD-students, both in the scientific and social domains.
