Connectionists: [Jobs] PhD opening: Reinforcement Learning in Neuromuscular Modelling for Control of Musculoskeletal Robots in real-world (University of Twente).

[Massimo Sartori]

As part of a newly funded collaborative project (Swiss National Science
Foundation SNSF co-applicant project) between ETH Zürich's Soft Robotics
Lab (Robert Katzschmann, Ronan Hinchet) and University of Twente's
NeuBoticsLab (https://bit.ly/NeuBotics), I have a PhD opening:

*ReinforcementLearning in NeuroMusculoSKeletal Models for the Real-World
Control of Human-inspired Musculoskeletal Robots*

*Apply by November 23, 2025*:
https://utwentecareers.nl/en/vacancies/2271/phd-opening-reinforcement-learning-in-human-neuromusculoskeletal-models-for-the-control-of-human-inspired-musculoskeletal-robots/

We’re seeking for motivated candidates that are interested in developing
Computer Models (MyoSuite + CEINMS-RT) of the composite
neuro-musculo-skeletal system that combine detailed musculoskeletal
geometries, muscle-tendon models and Neural Control pathways (e.g.,
CPG-like and reflexive) for the versatile and roboust motor control of
musculoskeletal robots (i.e., autonomous and assistive) in the real world.

Regards,

Massimo
