Post-doc/PhD student/Research Assistant

Advanced Nanomaterials and Microrobotics Laboratory (ANML) is dedicated to an interdisciplinary research programme that bridges micro-/nanotechnology and functional materials with MEMS and robotics technology at small scales. We are currently looking for Post-doc, PhD student and Research Assistant in the following direction. More detail can be found at http://www.cuhklizhanggroup.com . 

1.Materials Chemistry or Processing, Biosensing and Biochemistry

Focuses on micro-/nanorobotics, functional nanomaterials and their biomedical applications, particularly in pathogen sensing. The group has tight collaboration with the Institute of Digestive Disease (IDD) and the Department of Microbiology of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). The media report of a recent collaboration can be found in the link below:
