The positions are attached to the Département des neurosciences cliniques (https://www.hug.ch/departement-neurosciences-cliniques). This department provides care to patients of all ages, children and adults, suffering from neurosurgical, neurological, ophthalmological and oto-rhino-laryngological pathologies. Care is adapted to the needs and difficulties of the patient, from the most acute sectors (intermediate care units) to the rehabilitation sectors (neurorehabilitation).

The objective of the department is to lead patients toward recovery of their autonomy through teaching, support and outpatient follow-up. It ensures the operation of patients as well as their support, in order to favor an early return home. In the same vein, outpatient care is also prioritized and operative activity optimized, to facilitate accessibility to care within a reasonable timeframe.

The service of neurosurgery (https://www.hug.ch/neurochirurgie) provides personalized global care to patients suffering from a neurosurgical condition (vascular neurosurgery, epilepsy surgery, pituitary disorders, brain tumors, skull base tumors, spine tumors, hydrocephalus and cerebrospinal fluid disorders).
