He worked at Allegro MicroSystems Inc., from 1997 to 2000, where he was an Analog IC Designer of Hall-effect magnetic sensors. From 2000 to 2004, he was a Ph.D. student and Research Assistant at ETHZ, where he designed chemical and mechanical sensors. In 2004, he moved to the USA where he designed biomedical devices first as a Post-Doctoral Research Associate in the University of Washington, and then as an Assistant Professor in the University of Hawaii. In 2006, he returned to Europe where he joined the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) as a Senior Research Scientist for the design and development of biosensors using organic nanotransistors. From 2007 to 2009, he was a Senior Lecturer in the University of Glasgow, U.K., and in the University College Cork, Republic of Ireland, where he designed ultra-low power biomedical devices. From 2009 to 2017, he was Full Professor and Head of the Laboratory of Microelectronics, Bioelectronics and Sensor Systems (LMBS) at the University of Applied Sciences of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI), where he designed smart contact lenses and eye implants. In 2017, he joined both the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences (HSLU) and EPFL as a part-time Senior Research Scientist to continue his work on smart sensor systems.
His research interests are in the fields of physical, chemical, and biomedical microsensors; sensor fusion algorithms; analog and mixed-signal IC design; MEMS; embedded systems; avionics and bioelectronics.
