Projects AvailableThe Discipline of Surgery at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital is one of the largest academic surgical departments in Australia and is a major centre for surgical research and post-graduate teaching in a wide range of fields. Active research groups are investigating colorectal disease, vascular biology of reperfusion injury, ear, nose and throat surgery and bone tumours. A fully equipped molecular laboratory provides the facilities to use biotechnological approaches to answer fundamental questions about gene expression in these pathological settings. Well-equipped laboratories and an active postgraduate student population provide a stimulating environment for further studies. For further general information, contact: Honours and Postgraduate Coordinator Dr Prue Cowled Tel: (08) 8222 7541 Opportunities for postgraduate study in the Discipline of Surgery are available for the following categories of student: • PhD (background in either Science or Medicine) Supervisors/Contact Details/ProjectsProfessor G Maddern A/Professor W Roediger A/Professor R Fitridge and Dr P Cowled Mr P Hewett and Dr J Hardingham A/Professor N Rieger A/Professor N Rieger and Mr P Hewett Mr D Walsh Professor P-J Wormald and Dr Lorwai Tan The Discipline of Surgery at The Royal Adelaide Hospital is a major centre for surgical research and post-graduate teaching.
