Dear Robotics Community,
A PhD position (project REACT) is available in the domain of assistive service robotics in IMT Atlantique Bretagne-Pays de la Loire, Brest, France (IMTA). The 3-year doctoral scholarship is provided by regional funds (Bretagne region and Brest metro-pole) and aims to advance the state-of-the-art in terms of physical interaction capabilities of service robots for assistance to frail people. The thesis will be conducted in the context of the recently inaugurated research Chair "Maintien@Domicile" (M@D) of which IMTA is a founding partner and is expected to start from September 2018.
IMTA (http://www.imt-atlantique.fr/en) is a public institute of superior education (postgraduate) and research, that accredits Master diplomas to engineers up to Doctoral degree. IMTA is ranked among the top 10 in France (group A+) of engineering schools (Grandes coles) in 2018 (https://bit.ly/2J4tfjE). Brest is similarly ranked in 2018 among the best cities in France in terms of life and work quality (https://bit.ly/2BAEpIO).
The hosting IHSEV research team (https://departements.imt-atlantique.fr/info/recherche/ihsev/) specialises in information and communication technologies for assistance to people, combining skills from informatics and robotics: domotics protocols, embedded systems, service robotics, robotic learning et interactive TV. It collaborates with medical personnel, ergonomists and sociologists. IHSEV disposes various state-of-the-art robotic equipment (mobile robots, humanoids, robotic manipulators, etc), offering an attractive working environment for hosting research activities of international visibility.
