New LBB members
Vincent Martinez started in October at the lbb. He received the French Engineering Degree at the Université de Technology de Troyes. During his PhD he will focus on designing and microfabricating a novel sensitive self-sensing method allowing the FluidFM to do optimal experimentation in turbid liquids.
Dr. László Demkó joined the lbb team as postdoc. He got his PhD in Physics in 2010 from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics and then stayed 2 years at postdoc in at the University of Tokyo at the
Magnetoelectric Spectroscopy Group (Department of Applied Physics). Among others he will focus on building and interfacing neural networks and the study of novel biosensor techniques for diagnostics.
