The role
The laboratory of Biomaterials and Biomedicine at BCMaterials is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher for the BIOELEC-2 project, funded by the IKUR program. The work will be carried out in collaboration with Achucarro and University of the Basque Country (EHU).
The researcher will develop electro- and magnetoactive materials and characterize the response of cells of neural origin to the dynamic electro- and magnetoelectric stimuli in terms of metabolic activity and maturation. To this end, the researcher will design and perform live imaging experiments and functional assays (e.g., membrane potential generation, ion signalling).
As said before, the position is offered within the BIOELEC-2 IKUR Strategy project with a finishing date on 31/12/2028.
About BCMaterials
BCMaterials, the Basque Center on Materials, Applications and Nanostructures, is an autonomous materials research center launched in June 2012 by Ikerbasque and the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU). It is part of the BERC (Basque Excellence Research Centers) network and counts 131 researchers (105 staff researchers plus 26 associates), with 241 Scopus indexed publications in 2025 and around 5,800,000 € in funding, 99% of it competitive.
The center generates knowledge on the new generation of smart, active and multifunctional materials and turns it into (multi)functional solutions and devices for the benefit of society. Its strategic areas cover environmental prevention, remediation and monitoring; energy generation and storage; digitalization and emerging technologies such as sensors and actuators for the Internet of Things and Industry 4.0; and biomedicine and biotechnology, including nanoparticle-based solutions and organ-on-a-chip approaches.
