Curriculum vitae
Prof. Boris Hadaschik studied medicine in Heidelberg, Louisville, Detroit and New Orleans. Afterwards he trained in Surgery and Urology in Heidelberg and Mainz. In 2006, Boris Hadaschik was awarded a two-year postdoctoral research fellowship at the Vancouver Prostate Centre from the German Research Foundation. He obtained the German Urological Association’s highest scientific award, the Maximilian Nitze Prize, for his work regarding "Novel intravesical agents against non-muscle invasive bladder cancer in a validated orthotopic mouse model". In 2010, Boris Hadaschik became an Associate Professor in the Department of Urology at the University Hospital Heidelberg. His main interests lie in the development of prostate cancer diagnostics (for example, imaging-guided biopsy) and therapy (for example, molecularly-targeted radiopharmaceuticals) to improve and customize cancer treatment and its outcomes. Prof. Boris Hadaschik is a Co-Founder of the Ginsburg Study Group for Comprehensive Prostate Diagnostics and a Member of several international Working Groups to optimize MRI-targeted prostate biopsy. In addition, he is a Principal Investigator of the German multicentre PROBASE trial for prospective randomized evaluation of risk-adapted prostate-specific antigen screening in 50,000 young men.
