The School

 

International School for Ph.D. Students on “Electronics for Health”

24-26 June, 2024 | Genoa, Italy

 

Intro

The current developments in biomedical and life science electronics include a move toward ultra-low power portable/implantable devices as well as enhanced micro- and nanoscale integration and novel system-level solutions. Significant advancements can be expected at the interface of artificial and biological systems. Such advancements will require but also facilitate, a deeper understanding of biology, and in turn, they will lead to new bioinspired engineering solutions.

The 2024 SIE Ph.D. school "Electronics for Health" goal is to foster research, development, education, and industrial dissemination of knowledge relating to the emerging fields of microelectronics and system-level approaches in biological and medical applications.   
The Ph.D. school is interdisciplinary, incorporating knowledge and skills from the biological sciences, medicine, and nanotechnology as well as domains more commonly connected to electronics, such as analog and digital circuits and systems.

In summary, the 2024 SIE Ph.D. School hosted by Genova, targets to give an up-to-date perspective on cutting-edge systems, technologies, and approaches to enhance healthcare.   
Thanks to eminent talks from renewed speakers and semiconductor representatives, both academic and industrial views will be shown.
