Description:
Fully funded postdoc position
I am looking for PhD students for my newly founded research group "Soft Robotics for Autonomous Systems" at the University of Stuttgart. The positions are fully funded and include German social security and health care benefits. More information can be found in the attached pdf.
A research fellow position is available at University of Pavia in Italy starting February-May 2023. The position is part of a project in collaboration with Technion - Israel Institute of Technology. Interested candidates are encouraged to contact Prof. Giulia Scalet (giulia.scalet [at] unipv.it).
My lab is looking for strongly motivated Ph.D. students and Postdocs to join our group in the Department of Mechanical Engineering & Materials Science at Duke University. We conduct research on human-centered materials intelligence through a combination of flexible electronics, robotic metamaterials, and artificial intelligence. Two positions are available immediately.
Position 1: The project will focus on the design, fabrication, and testing of robotic mechanical metamaterials.
S-Lab (https://sites.ji.sjtu.edu.cn/jaehyungju/) is looking for a highly qualified postdoc to work in mechanical metamaterials, 4D printing, and soft robotics. The ideal candidate will conduct independent and supervised research, perform tasks on experimental, theoretical, and modeling/simulation projects, write reports, submit deliverables to sponsors, publish papers, lead collaborative projects, and supervise graduate and undergraduate students and proposal preparation.
