Biography
I worked on my PhD at the Natural and Medical Sciences Institute (NMI) and at the University of Tübingen in Germany, where I proposed to utilise ferroelectric materials for neuroelectronic interfacing.
From April 2021 until December 2023 I was doing research in Cambridge. Specifically, this included research on
-
Ferroelectric memristors for non-volatile memory and brain-inspired computing applications.
-
Electrolyte-ferroelectric-semiconductor (EFS) devices to explore their potential as ferroelectric microelectrode in bioelectronic applications such as CMOS-based Neurochips and retinal implants.
