About this position
PhD position available at the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences (LSMU) in self-healing hydrogels for on-demand drug and exosome delivery.
The project combines hydrogel biophysics, biomaterials, polymer/materials chemistry, and drug delivery with a focus on injectable hydrogels that self-heal and release payloads under mechanical stress. The group’s prior work includes collagen-based hydrogels and self-healing crosslinked gel networks.
Suitable candidates should have a Master’s degree in pharmaceutical sciences, polymer/materials chemistry, biophysics, biotechnology, or cell biology. Interest in the mechanics and physical chemistry of biomaterials is important; prior rheology or hydrogel experience is a plus.
Applications for the 2026 doctoral cycle are open now and close on 2026-09-09. The post says the official application procedure is in the attached document, and interested candidates should email ayan.samanta@lsmu.lt directly.
