Expertise Electrochemical BiosensorsSensors and Biosensors interfaces | front-end electronicsBiomedical circuits and systems Francesca Rodino received the B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Biomedical Engineering from the Politecnico di Torino, Turin, Italy, in 2019 and 2022, respectively. She developed her Master's project in the field of cortical neuroprosthesis devices for artificial vision in collaboration with the Integrated Circuits Laboratory (ICLAB) at école Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland. Currently, she is conducting her Ph.D. in Microsystems and Microelectronics (EDMI) at EPFL's Electrical and Microengineering Institute (IEM) - Microcity, Neuchatel, Switzerland.Her Ph.D. project is focused on developing an intelligent platform for drug response in precision oncology. Her current research interests include electrochemical biosensors and frontend electronics for multiple drug monitoring in personalized medicine and therapy.
