Foundation Bertarelli Chair in Neuroprosthetic Technology

Laboratory

Summary

The Bertarelli Foundation of Neuroprosthetic Technology, also known as the Laboratory for Soft Bioelectronic Interfaces, is a multidisciplinary group focusing on the integration of soft bioelectronic interfaces or electronics skins. Their research explores materials, technology, and the implementation of stretchable materials and devices in ultra-compliant circuitry and soft biointerfaces. They work on applications such as novel user touch interfaces, robotic skins, and long-term active neuroprostheses. The lab offers open positions for PhD students, post-doc researchers, and process engineers, and collaborates with various EPFL facilities for cleanrooms and imaging.
