Two fully funded PhD positions are available in the field of bioiontronics and neuromorphic computing at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, under the supervision of Assistant Professor Yujia Yoga Zhang. The research group focuses on cutting-edge topics such as iontronic circuits for neuromorphic computing and 3D hydrogel droplet printing for iontronic biointerfaces, combining expertise in bioengineering, materials science, and computer science.

Successful candidates will join an innovative and interdisciplinary team working at the intersection of bioengineering, advanced materials, and computational approaches. The positions offer the opportunity to contribute to emerging research areas with significant impact on future technologies in biointerfaces and neuromorphic systems.

Applicants should have or expect to obtain a Master's degree in bioengineering, biomedical engineering, computer science, materials science, electrical engineering, or a closely related discipline. A strong academic record, motivation for research, and proficiency in English are required. Prior experience in experimental or computational research is preferred.

Funding includes a competitive stipend and full coverage of tuition fees, with further details available on the EPFL careers portal. The application deadline is Spring 2026 (August 1, 2026). Interested candidates should review the official job descriptions and apply online via the provided EPFL careers links.
