Biomechanics jobs

Develop models of how cells sense and transmit mechanical cues, linking deformable soft materials and cell interfaces to intracellular signalling and mechanosensitive calcium responses. The project is primarily computational, with opportunities to connect models to experiments. Join Vesna Bacheva’s research at the Groningen Research Institute of Pharmacy,…

The Soft Robotics Lab seeks postdoctoral researchers working on compliant robotic systems, biohybrid actuators, dexterous manipulation, robot learning or embodied-AI simulation. Researchers will develop and experimentally validate systems, publish findings and co-supervise students. The full-time Zurich appointment starts with a one-year contract, renewable…

Lead research linking focused ultrasound, synthetic biology and cancer immunotherapy in Nate Yoon’s RPBS Lab. Projects include ultrasound-responsive gene circuits, immune-cell mechanotransduction and acoustic tools for imaging and therapy. Mentor students and develop an independent research trajectory in an interdisciplinary engineering environment. The…

The Future Health Technologies 2 programme seeks a doctoral researcher to develop deep-learning models that predict personalised hip-fracture risk from bone-density and CT scans. Research will extend predictions to repeated imaging and future bone-ageing trajectories, and validate them against biomechanical simulations and observed fractures. This full-time…
