The rapidly expanding Soft Flyers Group (https://stonybrook.edu/soft-flyers) and Dynamic Structures Laboratory (https://you.stonybrook.edu/pcelli/) at Stony Brook University seek to fill a Postdoctoral Researcher/Research Scientist position as soon as possible. We are developing mechanical intelligence as applied to aerial robotics. The focus will be on hardware development and experimental validation up to and including flight testing.
Candidates should have a strong publication record in aerial robotics and/or structural mechanics. A particular emphasis on shape shifting structures will set competitive candidates apart from the field. Interested folks should submit their application here.
