Doctoral Position: Development of an Organ-on-chip Platform at ETH Zurich (Bioanalytics Group, ETH Zurich in Basel, Switzerland). This PhD opening sits at the interface of biomedical engineering , biology , and microfluidics . The group is developing organ-on-chip / microphysiological systems and vascularized tissue models to study how cells, cell-secreted molecules, and drugs cross endothelial barriers and how compounds move from tissue into the bloodstream. The project is connected to understa...

Doctoral Student in Environmental Bioengineering at ETH Zurich (Zurich, Switzerland). The Environmental Microfluidics Group of Prof. Roman Stocker in the Institute of Environmental Engineering is recruiting a PhD student for a project on bacterial chemotaxis , plasmid transfer , and the spread of antibiotic resistance in aquatic environments. The project is a joint effort with Prof. Jonasz Slomka at the University of Warsaw and is funded by a recently awarded SNSF grant . This is a highly experi...

PhD position in Bottom-up Bioenergetics and Cell Metabolism at the University of Bern This PhD project sits at the interface of synthetic biology, biochemistry, bioenergetics, cell metabolism, membrane proteins, enzymology, and quantitative modelling . The work focuses on building cell-like systems from defined molecular components, with an emphasis on ATP and NAD(P)H regeneration, coupling energy modules to metabolic and biosynthetic pathways, and creating increasingly cell-like compartments in...
