PhD in Soft Robotics, Micromanufacturing, and Bioengineering for Lab-on-Chip Systems at KU Leuven KU Leuven in Belgium

Ghent University, a top 100 global institution, is offering a full-time doctoral fellowship in the Department of Electromechanical, Systems and Metal Engineering. The position is based at the Energy & Systems Laboratory (EnSy) and is part of the regional Stratus project, which aims to develop high-performance drone motors without the use of critical materials such as rare-earth magnets and copper. The research will focus on alternative solutions, including electrically excited systems and ferrit...

ETH Zurich’s Soft Robotics Lab within the Institute of Robotics and Intelligent Systems is inviting applications for open doctoral positions in soft and musculoskeletal robotics, biohybrid systems, and robot learning . The lab works at the intersection of hardware, biology, and learning, with a clear emphasis on building new kinds of robots that are more flexible, dexterous, adaptive, and closer in capability to biological systems. The group’s research spans four broad directions: soft and muscu...

ETH Zurich’s Soft Robotics Lab in the Institute of Robotics and Intelligent Systems is recruiting several postdoctoral researchers in robot learning , soft robotics , musculoskeletal robotics , and biohybrid robotics . The lab works across four closely connected directions: compliant and musculoskeletal robot design, biohybrid living systems and tissue engineering, dexterous manipulation and learning for contact-rich tasks, and simulation/fabrication for embodied AI. Candidates may focus on buil...

Ghent University, a top 100 global institution, offers a full-time doctoral fellowship in the Department of Electromechanical, Systems and Metal Engineering. The position is based at the Energy & Systems Laboratory (EnSy) and is part of the Flanders Make research project IMVEP, which spans four years. The project centers on the development and validation of multilevel inverters for high-power electric motor applications, specifically targeting high DC bus voltages up to 1200 V. The main objectiv...
