Student project: Development of a Microbiome Sensor for Ingestible Health Applications
*Important for non-EU students: You'll need to be registered at a Dutch university to meet immigration requirements.
Where Microbiome Science Meets Innovation: Engineering the Future of Ingestible Health Sensors
What you will do
Over the past decade, the microbiome has emerged as a key player in human health and disease. At OnePlanet, we've already made major progress in understanding gut physiology through our ingestible pill. Building on this platform, we now aim to go a step further, to sense microbial activity itself. Join our team and help us turn groundbreaking science into real-world health solutions.
You will work at the forefront of ingestible sensor development, advancing our understanding of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. By exploring the role of the microbiome and host-microbe interactions, your work will contribute to improving human health and enabling the development of new therapeutics.
What we do for you
OnePlanet Research Center is a multidisciplinary collaboration between Wageningen University & Research (WUR), Radboud University, Radboud UMC and nano-technology world-player imec. Your work will not only be of academic relevance, but is translated to practical applications where possible. You will be part of a team where everyone has different backgrounds and subjects of expertise, which makes it fun to exchange perspectives and to work together.
