The Department of Biomechanical Engineering at the University of Twente (https://www.utwente.nl/en/et/be/) invites applications for PhD student positions in the field of Wearable Robotics.
PhD positions are part of a newly funded large-scale national project aimed at developing next-generation Exo-Aids: soft, comfortable wearable robotic technologies supporting smooth and versatile movements with applications in neurorehabilitation and industrial settings.
Two positions are currently available:
1. Towards symbiotic and versatile control of wearable exoskeletons for workers:

The Department of Biomechanical Engineering is specialized in the application area of Biomedical Technology with cutting-edge research facilities in wearable robotics (https://www.wearableroboticslab.nl/). Research focuses on the interaction between the human motor system and medical devices that support this system. The result of this research is applied in the development of innovative medical devices.
