Postdoctoral Researcher - UCAM SENS

Funciones

The UCAM-SENS is a new scientific initiative that strives for the true digital transformation of key domains such as Health, Sport, Food, and the Environment, by using advanced (bio)chemical sensing based on electrochemistry and imaging principles.

The UCAM-SENS is led by two well-recognized worldwide investigators, Prof. Maria Cuartero (ERC Fellow) and Prof. Gaston Crespo, who after an extensive academic career in Switzerland and Sweden of ten years, set this unique research and educational environment at the UCAM.

The mission of UCAM-SENS is established on four pillars:

1. RESEARCH: synergy of fundamental and applied investigations with remarkable significance, quality, and high impact, resulting in tangible outcomes that solve current and future societal challenges.
2. EDUCATION: personalized education at master and Ph.D. levels in chemical digitalization with sub-branches such as bioelectrochemistry, analytical methods, nano-chemistry, imagining, micro-fluidics, etc.
3. INNOVATION: materialize research ideas into concrete business cases, advance the technological readiness accompanied with alternatives to reach end-users aiming at improving the citizens’ life, our environment and surrounded.
4. INDUSTRIAL PARTNERSHIP: the UCAM-SENS has the required scientific knowledge to develop sustainable research, development, and innovation projects (R+D+I) in cooperation with the industrial sector toward a mutual benefit.

In addition, UCAM-SENS is located at the HiTech4 research building (research incubator and accelerator), which is a multicultural and multidisciplinary environment where people, ideas, knowledge, and necessities meet altogether to pose and address new challenges.
