Función: The System Chemistry Group at IMDEA Nanociencia is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to join our team. This position is part of an European national project aimed at developing supramolecular robots based on single fiber bundles. This project will serve as an integrative platform to bring together so far disjoint concepts in Supramolecular Systems Chemistry and Swarm Robotics, to bring us closer to biological-like functions in fully artificial chemical systems.
