DNA-Robotics

Welcome to the DNA-Robotics website

DNA-Robotics is an Innovative Training Network (GA no. 765703) under the European Commission’s Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions H2020. The school officially started on January 1 2018 and will run for 4 years. The DNA-Based Modular Robotics (DNA-Robotics) school is in the process of hiring 15 early stage researchers to subsequently take the first steps to scale advanced robotic behavior to the molecular scale for future medical and technological applications.
