https://liu.se/en/organisation/liu/itnWe are looking for a PhD student in Applied Physics with focus on plant based biohybrid living materials.
Your work assignments
The PhD student will develop biohybrid materials based on plant cells with living characteristics such as growth, responsiveness, and evolution. The PhD student will be responsible for culturing plant cells, charactering their growth and properties and functionalizing them with technological materials. The biohybrid materials will then be developed via additive manufacturing techniques including bioprinting and their electrical, mechanical and evolving properties will be characterized. The research has interdisciplinary character including material-device characterization and plant biology. The PhD student will work closely with collaborators specialized in plant biology.
As a doctoral student, you devote most of your time to doctoral studies and the research projects of which you are part. Your work may also include teaching or other departmental duties, up to a maximum of 20% of full-time.
Your workplace
At the Laboratory of Organic Electronics (LOE), we focus on the study and application of electronically and ionically conducting organic materials in an array of areas spanning energy harvesting, printed electronics, photonics, and bioelectronics.
