The first step in this project will be the development and characterization of the appropriate active hydrogel components e.g., chemical transistors. The processing of chemical signals that can be achieved with these components will be analyzed. Based on these results basic logic circuits will be built and applied to the control of microfluidic flows. A special interest lies in the question which paradigms from electronic logics can be directly transferred to microfluidics and which have to be modified.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0What we offer<br \/>\nYou will join a team of enthusiastic scientists who creatively pursue their individual research agenda inspired by the cluster\u2019s innovative approach and support. Your PhD-research will be fostered by the cfaed philosophy to promote young researches which includes: access to state of the art research of leading academic institutes; international postgraduate program; individual supervision by a Thesis Advisory Committee; possibility to earn (seed) grants of up to \u20ac 10.000; promotion of gender equality and family-friendly work environment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0Informal enquiries can be submitted to Prof. A.
