The **UCAM-SENS** unit is looking for a **PhD Student** under the **European Project IRHIS,**“Interoperable Remote Health Innovation brought to Scale”.

**Background**

The **UCAM-SENS** is a scientific unit 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: (i) **_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; (ii) **_EDUCATION_**, personalized education at master and PhD levels in chemical digitalization with sub-branches such as bioelectrochemistry, analytical methods, nano-chemistry, imagining, micro-fluidics, etc. (iii) **_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. Note that we are a foundation with a social mission, and thus, benefits are fully re-invested in our research purpose. (iv) **_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.

The **UCAM-SENS** unit is located at the **HiTech** research building (research incubator and accelerator), which is a multicultural and multidisciplinary environment where people, ideas, knowledge, and necessities meet all together to pose and address new challenges.

**Eligibility**
- Completed a M.Sc. degree in Chemistry or Engineering Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Nanotechnology, or related fields. Attach you Certificate and Scores transcripts in English.
- Demonstrated experience in (bio)chemical sensors, electrochemistry, analytical chemistry, wearable sensors. Attach your Certificate and Scores transcripts in English.
- Attach publications and/or master's thesis related to the above experience.
