Students Scientific Work

Students Scientific Work
in the Department of Experimental Cardiology and Surgical Techniques  

The Department of Experimental Cardiology and Surgical  Techniques welcomes anyone who is interested in surgery from any of our TDK topics. Our topics include clinical work, which is carried out under the supervision of external departments in different hospitals in clinical conditions, and surgical research of the department.

Based on the decision of the TDT, from the academic year 2019/2020., the rules for joining the Students Scientific Association (TDK) have changed.

TDK registration process:

  • The student applies to the responsible for TDK corresponding to his / her intrests, who reports to the TDK office as a TDK student of the given institute.
  • Contact with the supervisor.
  • The student takes the TDK subject in the Neptun system.
  • To be a member of Semmelweis University Students’ Scientific Association while pursuing TDK work in a non-University institute, it is important for the student to submit an Announcement form filled at the start of every semester to the Council. (LINK) 
  • To participate in the Scientific Conference, you must have at least 2 semesters of active TDK student status.

Responsible for Students Scientific Work:

Dr. Györgyi Szabó PHD.

Topics and supervisors of Students’ Scientific Research (TDK)

Topics and supervisors of Students’ Scientific Research (TDK)

(valid: from 01 September 2026)

The TDK topics at the Department of Experimental Cardiology and Surgical Techniques of the Heart and Vascular Center give students the opportunity to get experience of scientific work, from searching in the literature to the process of surgical interventions and the results obtained. The aim of the literature search is to learn about organising and summarising the literature on the basis of one’s own approach. In animal experimentation, students will learn about the ethical use of animals in experiments, topic-specific surgical procedures, laboratory work and data evaluation.

We offer our TDK students the opportunity to participate in TDK conferences and other national surgical congresses, to write a thesis, to be a co-author in scientific publications.

If you are interested in a topic please, send an e-mail to kksmtnet@semmelweis.hu
