Secretary / Management Assistant (0.5 fte)
Join our dynamic Research group Self-Organizing Soft Matter as a part-time Management Assistant, 0,5 fte! We are seeking a talented individual to provide secretarial support and play a critical role in ensuring the smooth running of our research group.
Self-Organizing Soft Matter (SMM)
The solutions to the major societal challenges that we face require highly sophisticated, adaptive materials, custom-tailored in composition and in structure, which can be reconfigured for optimal performance and recycling. Soft matter science is ideally positioned to address the fascinating fundamental research questions related to this radical transformation as soft matter is intrinsically adaptive, due to the weak and often tunable physical interactions between the constituent building blocks. The TU/e group of Self-Organizing Soft Matter studies self-assembly processes in (biological) soft matter aiming to reveal structure-function relations and to translate such fundamental insights into rational design strategies for novel functional and recyclable soft materials.
