Graduate of the Faculty of Medicine at the Karol Marcinkowski Medical University in Poznan.

He is one of the initiators of integrating oncologists with urologists. His special interest has been directed to the treatment of patients with prostate cancer. In the author’s prospective clinical trial, he compared treatment outcomes for hormone therapy alone to hormone therapy combined with conformal radiotherapy. The second leading research topic was to evaluate the role of early postoperative radiotherapy in patients with prostate cancer at increased risk of failure after surgical treatment. The results of both studies confirmed the significant therapeutic gain resulting from the use of radiotherapy in prostate cancer.

In 2008 he was entrusted with the position of head of the Oncology Radiation Therapy Unit I, and in 2011 he was additionally appointed Head of the Radiation Therapy Unit I at the Wielkopolska Oncology Center, a position he still holds.
