ETH Zürich is well known for its excellent education, ground‑breaking fundamental research and for implementing its results directly into practice.
We invite applications for a postdoctoral research position focused on the mechanotyping of complex cellular systems, combining cutting‑edge nanotechnological tools, advanced cell biology, and systems‑level quantitative biology. The project aims to uncover how mechanical properties, forces, and physical phenotypes integrate with molecular networks to regulate the function of complex cellular systems across multiple biological scales.
Cells are mechanically heterogeneous systems composed of proteins, membranes, and compartments with distinct physical properties. In parallel, they continuously sense and respond to diverse mechanical cues from their environment, including adhesion, stiffness, tension, shear, pressure, a...
