Jürgen BruggerI am a Professor of Microengineering and co-affiliated to Materials Science. Before joining EPFL I was at the MESA Research Institute of Nanotechnology at the University of Twente in the Netherlands, at the IBM Zurich Research Laboratory, and at the Hitachi Central Research Laboratory, in Tokyo, Japan. I received a Master in Physical-Electronics and a PhD degree from Neuchâtel University, Switzerland. Research in my laboratory focuses on various aspects of MEMS and Nanotechnology. My group contributes to the field at the fundamental level as well as in technological development, as demonstrated by the start-ups that spun off from the lab. In our research, key competences are in micro/nanofabrication, additive micro-manufacturing, new materials for MEMS, increasingly for wearable and biomedical applications. Together with my students and colleagues we published over 200 peer-refereed papers and I had the pleasure to supervise over 25 PhD students. Former students and postdocs have been successful in receiving awards and starting their own scientific careers. I am honoured for the appointment in 2016 as Fellow of the IEEE “For contributions to micro and nano manufacturing technology”. In 2017 my lab was awarded an ERC AdvG in the field of advanced micro-manufacturing.

Simon Nessim HeneinSimon Henein obtient son diplôme d’ingénieur en microtechnique de l’Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) en 1996, puis le titre de docteur ès sciences techniques de cette même institution en 2000. En 2001 il publie un livre intitulé « Conception des guidages flexibles » qui devient une référence dans le monde de la conception micromécanique. Ce livre sera traduit en anglais et complété dans un ouvrage collectif intitulé "The art of flexure mechanism design" publié en 2017.Simon Henein s’engage ensuite professionnellement au Centre Suisse d’Electronique et Microtechnique (CSEM) où il conçoit et développe des mécanismes dédiés à des applications robotiques, spatiales, astrophysique, biomédicales et horlogères, ainsi qu’à l’Institut Paul Scherrer où il développe des instruments pour le synchrotron suisse SLS. Depuis le 1er novembre 2012, il est professeur associé en microtechnique à l’EPFL et directeur du Laboratoire de conception micromécanique et horlogère (Instant-Lab). De 2020 à 2021 il effectue un congé de recherche en tant que professeur invité au Centre d'études théâtrales de l'Université de Lausanne (faculté des lettres).
Dario FloreanoProf. Dario Floreano is director of the Laboratory of Intelligent Systems at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL). Since 2010, he is the founding director of the Swiss National Center of Competence in Robotics, a research program that brings together more than 20 labs across Switzerland. Prof. Floreano holds an M.A. in Vision, an M.S. in Neural Computation, and a PhD in Robotics. He has held research positions at Sony Computer Science Laboratory, at Caltech/JPL, and at Harvard University. His main research interests are Robotics and A.I. at the convergence of biology and engineering. Prof. Floreano made pioneering contributions to the fields of evolutionary robotics, aerial robotics, and soft robotics. He served in numerous advisory boards and committees, including the Future and Emerging Technologies division of the European Commission, the World Economic Forum Agenda Council, the International Society of Artificial Life, the International Neural Network Society, and in the editorial committee of several scientific journals. In addition, he helped spinning off two drone companies (senseFly.com and Flyability.com) and a non-for-profit portal on robotics and A.I. (RoboHub.org). Books
