Postdoctoral Position in Optical Systems for Advanced Biofabrication
Postdoctoral Position in Optical Systems for Advanced Biofabrication 100%, Zurich, fixed-term The Tissue Engineering and Biofabrication Laboratory (Prof. Marcy Zenobi-Wong) at ETH Zurich develops light-based 3D bioing techniques to engineer functional tissues with multi-scale porosity and topological guidance. Embedded within the Department of Health Sciences and Technology (D-HEST) and the Institute for Biomechanics, our group bridges biomedical engineering, materials science and biology. We are seeking an Optical Systems/Photonics Engineer to design and build light-delivery systems that shape light profiles to control hydrogel architecture. Job description Design, simulate, and build custom optical setups and beam-shaping trains Characterize how structured light fields interact with photosensitive polymers Collaborate within an interdisciplinary team of bioengineers, chemists, and biologists to translate photonic concepts into engineered scaffolds for regenerative medicine Profile PhD in Optical Engineering, Photonics, Applied Physics, Electrical Engineering (optics emphasis), or a related discipline Hands-on experience with laser beam shaping, phase modulation Software development for optical modeling and numerical analysis (Python, MATLAB, or equivalent) Strong academic output relative to career stage, evidenced by high-quality publications or working papers Interest in translating optical physics towards products useful in tissue engineering Strong motivation to collaborate with interdisciplinary scientists Excellent written and spoken English Experience in one or more of the following areas is advantageous: Multi-photon polymerization for optical devices Meta-lens/meta-surfaces Adaptable optics Non-diffractive beam design Workplace Workplace We offer Your job with impact: Become part of ETH Zurich, which not only supports your professional development, but also actively contributes to positive change in society You can expect numerous benefits, such as public transport season tickets and car sharing, a wide range of sports offered by the ASVZ, childcare and attractive pension benefits We value diversity and sustainability In line with our values, ETH Zurich encourages an inclusive culture.
