Develop uncertainty-aware tunnel condition assessment from images, video, sensors and repeated three-dimensional scans. Fuse deterioration evidence through hierarchical Bayesian models, represent evidence quality and integrate indicators into a digital-twin prototype. The project includes underground inspection and validation with Hagerbach Test Gallery and EuroTube. Screening starts 9 November 2026; applications remain open until filled. Apply through the ETH online recruitment portal.

Suggested directions include AI-guided catalysts, reaction conditions, polymers, biosynthetic pathways, semiconductor chemistry, process optimization, sensors and predictive spectroscopy. The appointee will establish an externally funded research programme, teach undergraduate and graduate chemistry, and contribute service. The estimated salary range is $119,600–$144,200. Applications submitted by 30 October 2026 receive full consideration; the recruitment portal accepts

This course provides a fundamental foundation in the modern techniques of experimental neuroscience. It introduces the essentials of sensors, motor control, microcontrollers, programming, data analysis, and machine learning by guiding students through the “hands on” construction of an increasingly capable robot. In parallel, related concepts in neuroscience are introduced as nature’s solution to the challenges students encounter while designing and building their own intelligent system.

Talks and panel discussions around the LifeQ process of moving from the embedded engineering of sensors on edge devices to big health data analysis in the cloud.

Chronic low-back pain is an illness that shows a high prevalence worldwide. There is a set of causes that we can attribute to such condition. It does range from muscle contractures, arthritis, radiculopathies, degeneration of the intervertebral disc to pathologies such as cancer. Nevertheless, 90% of such pain has been classified as non-specific. In fact, the treatment for the illness is commonly oriented towards the symptoms. Rarely, it is investigated. To get the most of it, we are proposing a system to identify, analyze and generate a treatment for low-back pain. The system encompasses a se
