CATEGORIES:Call for proposal
DESCRIPTION:Health is a paramount concern in our society\, and it is imper
 ative to explore innovative health sensing solutions that can enhance the 
 accuracy\, reliability\, and accessibility of health data through the util
 ization of nano- and microsystems. Digital health technologies empower con
 sumers to manage and track their health and wellness-related activities ef
 ficiently. Moreover\, in the realm of digital healthcare\, sensors play a 
 pivotal role in gathering crucial health-related parameters from patients\
 , employing wearable devices and other technological means.\n \nEPFL and 
 the company Melexis are launching a call for projects in sensors for healt
 h and wellbeing.\n\nWe invite proposals that focus on leveraging integrate
 d transducers or mixed-signal sensor microelectronics to revolutionize dig
 ital health sensing\, enabling more precise health monitoring solutions\, 
 including continuous tracking capabilities for high volume consumer health
  applications (e.g.\, wearables\, etc.) and high-volume professional healt
 h applications (e.g.\, x-omics\, in-vitro diagnostics\, etc.).\n\nAmount o
 f the grants\nThe grants are approximately CHF 200k each\, typically aimin
 g at covering the salary of one post-doc for 2 years or of one PhD student
  for 3 years. Up to 2 selected proposals will be funded. Successful applic
 ants will have the opportunity to collaborate closely with Melexis integra
 ted sensor experts.\n\nWho can apply\nThe call for proposals is open to EP
 FL Laboratories.\n\nInformation session\nAn information session will take 
 place at EPFL ELD 016 on Tuesday 26 September\, from 12h to 13h or by zoom
