Open OpportunitiesTraditional legged robots are capable of traversing challenging terrain but lack energy efficiency and speed when compared to wheeled systems. We propose a novel optimization/learning framework that enables a legged robot equipped with powered wheels to perform hybrid locomotion. - Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Information, Computing and Communication Sciences, Mechanical and Industrial Engineering

| We want to enhance the existing manipulation capabilities of ANYmal with arm. We are currently developing a shared autonomy framework, allowing the robot to perform various autonomous manipulation and cooperation tasks, while allowing an operator to intervene in case something unexpected happens. - Engineering and Technology

| Already today, microbubbles are being used as ultrasound contrast agents. Their ability to precisely be manipulated to a target area gives rise to a lot of new possible applications. specially the ability to deliver drugs accurately and avoiding drug-tissue interactions with the surrounding healthy tissue would be groundbreaking for modern medicine. WE plan to implement a stable on-chip fabrication of liposomes and microbubbles and study the acoustic effect over the produced microbubbles.
We investigate the effect of flow rates on the size of the produced bubbles and examine their stability. - Biomedical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical and Industrial Engineering

| You will optimize a lateral flow assay (LFA) to make it compatible with our novel highly sensitive electrochemical readout that will form a cornerstone for the ground-breaking point-of-need diagnostics device. You will be working on assay development with a focus, amongst others, on decreasing the non-specific binding of analyte and detection nanoparticles to the LFA membrane matrix, increasing sensitivity by optimizing the chemical environment of the immune-sandwich formation, nanoparticle/receptor conjugation or capillary flow optimization.
You will work on an interdisciplinary project in collaboration with ETH spin-off Hemetron (https://www.hemetron.com/, https://www.linkedin.com/company/hemetron/). This fast pace project is ideal for highly motivated students.

| Robotic Manipulation is one of the areas of robotics which has benefited the most from recent advances in large pre-trained machine learning models. At the Soft Robotics Lab, we aim to leverage such models for innovative applications to multi-task manipulation of rigid and soft objects. In this thesis, we plan to 1) set up a manipulation pipeline for control and data collection, and 2) advance the state of imitation learning by leveraging pre-trained semantic models. - Intelligent Robotics, Knowledge Representation and Machine Learning
