PhD in Biophysics: pressure-driven tissue morphogenesis in Drosophila Centre national de la recherche scientifique in France

Princeton University is sharing postdoc fellowships across three research areas: complex materials , physics of biological function , and theoretical science . These opportunities are relevant for researchers with backgrounds in physics , materials science , biology , and related interdisciplinary fields. The post highlights three separate Princeton centers: the Princeton Center for Complex Materials , the Center for Physics of Biological Function , and the Princeton Center for Theoretical Scien...

Three PhD positions are open in the ANR-funded HECTOR project: Heterotypical Active Matter Transport in Disordered Networks . The project brings together soft matter , microfluidics , mechanobiology , and computational biophysics to study how cells and deformable particles move through complex microvascular environments. The openings are split across three themes: Soft Matter & Microvascular Hydrodynamics in Marseille, Cellular Mechanobiology in Marseille, and Computational Biophysics & Fluid Me...

The European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble, France, offers a unique PhD opportunity focused on the structural study of the stratum corneum lipid interfaces. This project aims to advance our understanding of the human skin’s primary barrier, the stratum corneum, by investigating the interface between corneocytes and intercellular lipids using state-of-the-art neutron diffraction, neutron reflectometry, and advanced optical microscopy techniques. The research is fundamentally o...

PhD opportunity in synthetic cells , artificial life , coacervate micro-compartments , and bioenergy production in Bordeaux/Pessac, France . The project focuses on engineering coacervate micro-compartments that mimic living cells, embedding enzymes and organelles to sustain bioenergy production. The work spans fluorescence microscopy and microfluidics across two labs: CRPP and CBMN . Applicants should have a Master's in physical chemistry or soft matter ; interest in biochemistry is welcome. The...
