Research Calendar

We have a shared Google calendar with 19 subscriptions. Everyone has been given editor access and should, therefore, be able to create and edit events. We propose that one person from each research subspecialty be responsible for keeping the calendar updated with major conferences within their field. If something is missing, please reach out to the responsible colleague.

Responsibilities (DRAFT – to be discussed at the next meeting):

• Journal Club: Hannes Sjölander
• PhD Meetings: Amanda Øster Andersen
• Project Coordinator Meetings: Natasja Paaske
• Head and Neck Surgery: Joachim Hansen
• Rhinology: Mads Guldager

If you are not yet subscribed to the calendar, please contact Mads Guldager.

Yearly Research Meeting 2024

August, 15th 2024

In the beautiful region of Northern Zealand, we had the opportunity to host our annual research meeting at Tisvildeleje Strandhotel, just a short walk from the beach.

During the meeting, we discussed the current status of ongoing research projects and identified areas for future collaboration. Meetings like this are essential for staying updated on ongoing research and learning from each other’s experiences. Several new initiatives were established:

– Enhancing multicenter research
– Identifying potential for new multicenter studies
– Collaborating on future research across subspecialties

We were honored to have lectures from:
Professor Anders Perner from Rigshospitalet, who gave an engaging talk on their work at Rigshospitalet ICU and how they are advancing research by initiating studies investigating multiple treatments simultaneously through a practice known in Danish as “Platformsforsøg.”

Professor Chris Holsinger from Stanford and Endosurg.ai, who delivered an inspiring lecture on how they are improving endoscopy through artificial intelligence. We look forward to following their progress in developing AI-driven solutions to enhance the precision and efficiency of surgical procedures.

We are deeply grateful to the Mauritzen La Fontaine Fonden for supporting this day of research. Without their aid, we wouldn’t have had this unique opportunity to boost research at the Copenhagen ENT Research Initiative and Collaboration (CENTRIC).

We extend our thanks to Professor Christian von Buchwald and PhD fellow Joachim Hansen for organizing this fantastic day.
