About the Role
PhD position in Biohybrid Robotics
Build the next generation of muscle-actuated robots in a lab whose recent biohybrid work has been published in Science Advances and Advanced Intelligent Systems.
The Soft Robotics Lab within the Institute of Robotics and Intelligent Systems at ETH Zurich is inviting applications for an open doctoral position. We are looking for an excellent researcher to join and advance our research efforts in the fabrication and control of biohybrid robots. Our lab's goal is to build, model, and control robots in a fundamentally different way, so that they become more flexible, dexterous, capable, and adapt better to their environment. On the biohybrid side, the lab has recently demonstrated 3D-bioprinted muscle-tendon interfaces with enhanced force transmission (Science Advances, 2025) and sensor-embedded muscle enabling closed-loop proprioceptive control (Advanced Intelligent Systems, 2025), work that has been featured in ETH pres...
