Scientific Internship: Building a microfluidic device to make “minimal cells"
In bottom-up synthetic biology, researchers try to build a minimal cell from scratch and from well-defined components. Giant lipid vesicles are frequently used to mimic a cell’s membrane. As an …
Scientific Internship: Machine learning for studying the timing of development in a nematode worm
How timing of development is controlled remains one of biology’s most enduring mysteries. For instance, how does the human body know to enter puberty more than ten years after its …
Scientific Internship: Crystal Structures by Design
Can we program particles to self-assemble into regular crystal structures by properly designing the interactions between these particles? This is a question that belongs to a novel class of inverse …
Scientific Internship: Decentralized learning of locomotion in modular soft robots
The Soft Robotic Matter group at AMOLF is looking for interns at the Master level from a range of backgrounds (including physics, mathematics and engineering) that will work on the …
