Life and academic career

[edit]

After completing his Abitur in 1998, Michalski studied medicine in Heidelberg. Following clerkships in England, the United States, and Switzerland, Michalski received his medical licence in 2004. He began his residency at Heidelberg University Hospital and the Department of Surgery of Technical University of Munich, where he headed the pancreas research laboratory. He completed a surgical oncology fellowship at Oregon Health and Science University in Portland before returning to Heidelberg University Hospital in 2014.[1][2]

There, he worked as a staff surgeon before becoming attending surgeon. He was promoted to assistant professor at Heidelberg University Hospital.[1][2] In 2018, he moved to University Hospital Halle (Saale), where he served as senior attending surgeon. In October 2020, Michalski took over the chair of general surgery at University of Ulm and became Director of the Department of General Surgery at University Hospital Ulm. Since 2023, Michalski has been professor of surgery and chair of the Department of General Surgery at Heidelberg University Hospital.[2][3][4]

Research

[edit]

As a surgeon, Michalski specializes primarily in complex tumour surgery, transplant surgery, and modern minimally invasive procedures, such as robot-assisted surgery. His research focuses particularly on pancreatic carcinogenesis, pancreatic carcinoma, and surgical oncology, as well as digital applications in surgery.[3] Additionally, he conducts clinical studies on surgery and multimodality therapy of gastrointestinal tumour diseases.[2]
