The Laboratory of Soft and Living Materials at ETH Zürich has multiple openings for PhD students on the general topic of ‘Physical Mechanisms Underlying the Structure and Rheology of Living Materials.’
PhD Positions in Soft and Living Materials
This research, led by Prof. Eric Dufresne, lies at the boundary between physics, materials science and biology. The specific topics for the theses include, but are not limited to:
a) The self-assembly of intrinsically disordered proteins
b) The folding of lipid bilayers through the self-assembly of adsorbed molecules
