[ETH Diversity] Professor or Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) of Micro- and Nanoengineering for Health at ETH Zurich

[Haller Annina (Prs)]

Professor / Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) of Micro- and Nanoengineering
for Health 

 

The Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering (www.mavt.ethz.ch) at
ETH Zurich invites applications for the above-mentioned position. 

 

Micro- and nanoengineering are key drivers in healthcare development.
Indeed, micro- and nanoengineered materials, such as functionalized drug
formulations and implants, and devices, such as for sensing and imaging, can
play a crucial role in enhancing the effectiveness and safety of patient
treatment, making diagnoses and therapies more efficient and reliable.

 

The focus of the professorship should strike a balance between fundamental
research on micro- and nanoengineering and technology development and their
translation related to health applications (exemplified but not limited to
functional materials for health, physical, chemical and biochemical sensing,
or related imaging, design and monitoring of organ-on-chip technologies).
The professorship should also address translational challenges related to
engineering scale-up, fabrication, processing, design, system integration,
and reliability, leading to clinical studies. It will have access to ETH
Zurich technology platforms for material science, fabrication and device
integration.

 

The new professor is expected to establish an ambitious, world-class
research program in the field of micro- and nanoengineering for health. We
encourage applications from engineers from the entire spectrum from
functional materials, medical devices to imaging and biomedical engineering.
Candidates should demonstrate a core area of scientific expertise and solid
theoretical foundation with a desire for translational and innovation.
Experience in the collaboration with clinical partners will be highly
valued. 

 

Successful candidates should hold a PhD degree or equivalent in engineering
and have an outstanding international record of research accomplishments on
the above topics. They will actively participate in undergraduate (in German
or English) and graduate (in English) student teaching. This activity will
primarily lie within the ETH’s B.Sc in Mechanical Engineering and M.Sc.
programmes «Mechanical and Process Engineering», «Micro and Nanosystems» and
«Biomedical Engineering». The ability to lead a research group is expected.

 

Assistant professorships have been established to promote the careers of
younger scien­tists. ETH Zurich implements a tenure track system equivalent
to that of other top international universities.

 

ETH Zurich is an equal opportunity and family-friendly employer, values
diversity, and is responsive to the needs of dual-career couples.

Applications should include a curriculum vitae, a list of publications and
projects, a statement of future research and teaching interests, a
description of the leadership philosophy, three key publications, a
description of the three most important achievements, and a certificate of
the highest degree. The letter of application should be addressed to the
President of ETH Zurich, Prof. Dr. Joël Mesot. The closing date for
applications is 28 February 2025.
