He has been involved as a supervisor in PhD training for many years. \u201cI joined this training during the Covid-19 pandemic, when Professor Peter Hegyi asked me to supervise a student pursuing PhD studies at the University of P\u00e9cs. I assumed the role, and \u2013 after completing the meta-analysis courses in P\u00e9cs \u2013 became the supervisor of Dr. Norbert Kov\u00e1cs. He is a gastroenterologist, and he has made good progress in his scientific work under my guidance. He will obtain his doctoral research degree this year. When CTM moved to Budapest, I received another invitation and became a supervisor for a surgical colleague, Dr. Sarolta K\u00e1v\u00e1si. She works at the hospital in Cegl\u00e9d, and is currently a second-year PhD student at CTM. For now, I have another PhD student, \u00c1gnes Fodor, who is a surgeon in Budapest. She is a first-year PhD student at the centre.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The topics of Dr. \u00c1brah\u00e1m&#8217;s PhD students are related to gastrointestinal surgery. Norbert Kov\u00e1cs is studying surgery related to biliary tract problems, such as biliary obstruction and gallstones, while Sarolta K\u00e1v\u00e1si and \u00c1gnes Fodor are doing research in the field of colorectal surgery. These topics are very close to Dr. \u00c1brah\u00e1m&#8217;s interests, and he is happy to help students with their research. \u201cI travel to Budapest for the group meetings of the Gastroenterology Group every two weeks, and I also attend the progress reports every three months. Project meetings are held weekly online with the students and Science Methodology Supervisors. On these occasions we discuss current issues, and we also consult with statisticians.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>His first PhD student, Norbert Kov\u00e1cs, has already completed all the necessary publications and has a first-authored article. He is currently preparing his thesis for his PhD dissertation, with the help of Dr. \u00c1brah\u00e1m. &#8222;Sarolta K\u00e1vasi has one publication in the pipeline, and we will soon start writing the second one. \u00c1gnes Fodor is a bit behind schedule, because her baby was born in August, so we couldn&#8217;t start at the beginning of the academic year. But we&#8217;re also progressing well with her, and the full-text selection process is underway.\u201d Dr. \u00c1brah\u00e1m is happy to be part of CTM&#8217;s work as a supervisor. He says translational medicine is a huge opportunity to answer questions that arise in clinical practice through meta-analysis studies. \u201cI think translational medicine is a tremendous opportunity, it can improve patient care and help us to treat patients more effectively.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>(Szab\u00f3 Emese)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a supervisor, he is helping three PhD students, one of them will receive his doctoral research degree this year.
