**Job Description**
This PhD project focuses on the experimental realization and study of artificial microswimmers/microrobots that can move and interact autonomously in 3D environments, mimicking the complex dynamics of microorganisms in fluids. The research aims to understand and replicate these life-like dynamics in synthetic systems, building on an interdisciplinary approach combining concepts and methods from physics, chemistry, and mathematical modeling. The long-term goal is to derive design principles for constructing smart, adaptive microsystems potentially useful for targeted drug delivery, cargo transport, biosensing, microfluidic mixing, or self-healing materials.
