We will announce positions in the future, so keep your eyes open. You can also follow us on Twitter or LinkedIn, where we regularly update job postings.
Postdoc in Plant Bioelectronics
Are you passionate about addressing climate change and enhancing agricultural productivity? Join us in pioneering research that tackles these global challenges.
We are seeking a motivated and talented postdoctoral researcher to join our cutting-edge project aimed at developing organic bioelectronic technologies. Our goal is to revolutionize plant science by creating tools that monitor and influence plant physiology, paving the way for innovative agricultural applications.
What You’ll Do:
- Innovate: Use advanced microfabrication techniques and additive manufacturing to develop state-of-the-art devices
- Investigate: Interface these devices into plant models to study their responses to environmental stress.
- Cultivate: Grow and manage plants in our state-of-the-art controlled growth facilities.
- Collaborate: Work closely with other members of the group and experts in plant biology, engaging in interdisciplinary research that combines device development with plant studies.
- Network: Attend international conferences, access an extended network of collaborators

Postdoc in organic bioelectronics
We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral researcher to join our team focused on the development of implantable drug delivery systems for the next generation of cancer therapies. The bioSWITCH implant concept is based on a combination of “iontronic” electrophoretic drug delivery and click-to-release chemistry for targeted, programmable, and precise dosage of potent chemotherapeutics. This postdoc position is focused specifically on the fabrication, characterization, optimization, and implementation of iontronic drug delivery devices – in a variety of geometries and experimental setups, including biological experiments with our bioSWITCH collaborators in Austria (Graz and Vienna). These tasks will include experimental design and automation, as well as integration with our custom hardware and software.
The successful candidate will have strong problem-solving skills, be able to work effectively in a multi-disciplinary and international team and have excellent communication abilities. This is an exciting opportunity to work at the interface between chemistry, biology, and electronics in the highly collaborative and supportive Laboratory of Organic Electronics.

Postdoc in stretchable laser-induced graphene for sustainable energy devices
We are now looking to appoint a postdoc in the Soft Electronics group. The candidate will design new methods for stretchable laser-induced graphene (LIG) electrodes by exploring the structure-property relationship of how laser parameters and substrate composition affects morphology and the relevant conductivity, electrochemical and mechanical properties. Biomaterials such as lignin, cellulose, and gelatin, amongst others will be explored as substrates for the LIG electrodes. Once optimized, the postdoc will investigate the feasibility of the electrodes for an electrode-less battery concept by developing new electrolyte systems and perform their relevant electrochemical characterization. Integration of the developed battery cell into a wearable device will be explored.
The work is part of an ongoing effort within the Soft Electronics Group in sustainable and stretchable energy devices and the project will be highly collaborative within the group (Asst. Prof. Aiman Rahmanudin), LOE and external partners.

Scholarship for postdoctoral training at the Department of Science and Technology
At the Department of Science and Technology a scholarship has been established for foreign citizens with a PhD or equivalent acquired in another country than Sweden. Such a scholarship is now announced in the field of “organic electronics” entitled “Molecular dynamics studies of doping of organic conjugated polymers”. Supervisor is Igor Zozoulenko, Laboratory of Organic Electronics.
Your tasks will be to perform molecular dynamics studies of diffusion and drift of dopant molecules, glass transitions and stability of doped organic conjugated polymers at interfaces.
The scholarship is 25 000 SEK/month for one year.
