Valerio PiazzaTeaching & PhD PhD Students Claire Valentine Blaga, Matilde Cantele, Julia Sarah Marhic Past EPFL PhD Students as codirector Michele Zendrini Courses Functional properties of materials MSE-210 The main objective of this course is to present the concepts allowing the understanding of the fundamental principles that enable to predict the properties of the materials. The goal is that with these concepts, one will be able to realize material design and/or to understand novel materials.
Ata Jedari GolparvarAn Electronics Engineer passionate about everything in-between wearable computing to embedded systems and circuit design. I am a Ph.D. candidate in Microsystems and Microelectronics program of Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, and working there as a researcher in Integrated Circuits Laboratory (IClab), in its Bio/CMOS Interfaces division, as well as an R&D engineer at Senbiosys focused more on analog IC design and investigation of a miniaturized, non-invasive, point-of-care device to in vivo monitor of transcutaneous glucose concentration.Previously, during my master's studies at Sabanci University, Istanbul, Turkey between 2017 and 2019, where I was a teaching and research assistant, I turned more toward device level by joining Micro/Nano Devices and Systems lab (SU-MEMS) and specialized in wearable/flexible electronics and their applications in point-of-care devices as well as semiconductor device fabrication. Prior to grad school, I spent almost two years working as an embedded system developer in Nanopardaz, a company dedicated to designing electronic control boards for household appliances, where my responsibly mainly included software development for various embedded systems and design of electronic circuits and multilayer PCBs. I obtained my bachelor's in electronics at Azad University of Tabriz, Iran between 2012 and 2016 with specializing mostly in embedded systems and system-level circuit design.
