The Laboratory of Intelligent Systems (Prof. Dario Floreano, 
http://lis.epfl.ch) at EPFL offers a PhD fellowship in Evolutionary 
Robotics to investigate design principles of evolvable robotic parts. 
  Successful applicants will have the opportunity to work with advanced 
3D prototyping machines and collaborate with a team of neuroscientists, 
evolutionary biologists, and computer scientists within the European 
project INSIGHT.


This position is ideally suited for students with a master's degree in 
robotics, mechanical engineering, micro and nano-engineering, electrical 
engineering, manufacturing engineering, physics, or computer science. 
  Hands-on experience in mechanical design or mechatronics, preferably 
with use  of 3D prototyping, is required.  Good written and spoken 
English is a pre-requisite. The position is available immediately.  
Candidates should apply to the PhD program Manufacturing Systems and 
Robotics (EDPR) and mention Prof. Dario Floreano in the appropriate 
field of the application form.  Candidates who fulfill all the 
pre-requisites may also send an email enquiry to Joshua.Auerbach at epfl.ch 
<mailto:Joshua.Auerbach at epfl.ch> with a C.V. and evidence of academic 
excellence.
