Two PhD student positions are open at the “Laboratorio de Optica” at University of Murcia, Spain (http://lo.um.es) within the ACTIVA project, “Advanced Customized Technologies for Intact Vision in Ageing”, funded by EC MSCA Doctoral Network (www.kth.se/activa). ACTIVA provides international training at the interface of physics, optics and medicine to develop novel techniques facilitating intact vision with age. The PhD students should have a background in applied physics, optical engineering, vision science, electrical engineering, or a related discipline relevant for the project.
There are two separate work packages where each fellow will join:
– “Using infrared pulsed light as a diagnosis tool“
– “Wearable opto-electronic devices for vision correction”
We offer research training with workshops and secondments at European universities and companies.
