John Nassour

John Nassour, Full Professor at the University Medical Center Rostock, is recruiting for fully funded, full-time PhD and Postdoctoral positions in the new Chair of Intelligent Systems in Medicine in Rostock, Germany. The group works at the interface of engineering, robotics, wearable technologies, and medicine , with two main research directions: 1) Wearable Sensing & Smart Textiles for Medical Applications Develop intelligent textile and wearable sensing systems for quantitative assessment of human movement and functional states. Topics include textile and flexible sensors, wearable electronics, multimodal sensing, signal processing, and intelligent state estimation, with experimental and clinically oriented applications in neurology, rehabilitation, and orthopaedics . 2) Wearable Robotics for Medical Applications Develop intelligent wearable robotic systems to support human movement and motor function. Topics include actuation and sensing, mechanical and mechatronic design, control, human-robot interaction, and adaptive, user-centered assistance strategies, again with experimental and clinically oriented applications in neurology, rehabilitation, and orthopaedics. Applicants with backgrounds in robotics, mechatronics, biomedical engineering, electrical engineering, wearable technologies, smart textiles, sensing, control, signal processing , or related areas are encouraged to apply. The positions are based in Rostock, Germany , are full-time, and are initially funded for 2 years with the possibility of extension up to 5 years. The official application link is included in the post. Interested candidates should review the opening and submit their application through the linked portal.
