Join the lab

We welcome applications from motivated students and researchers interested in microfluidics, droplet-based systems, soft matter, biophysics, and immunology, with a strong emphasis on quantitative experimentation and data-driven analysis.

Opportunities may include:

  • Master internships (M1/M2) and research projects
  • PhD positions (depending on funding calls)
  • Postdoctoral positions (project-based opportunities)
  • Research engineer collaborations (platforms and instrumentation)

MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships: we are happy to host and support MSCA-PF applications, including project definition, positioning, and proposal preparation.

If you are interested, please contact Jacques Fattaccioli with:

  • a short CV,
  • a brief description of your interests (2–5 lines),
  • and (optionally) links to publications, GitHub, or previous projects.
