Document:
Guillermo Villanueva is a SNSF-funded Assistant Professor (non TT) at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausane (EPFL), Switzerland, in the Microengineering Institute (IMT). Before joining EPFL he was a Marie Curie post-doctoral scholar at DTU (Denmark) and Caltech (California, US); and before a post-doc at EPFL-LMIS1. He received his M.Sc. in Physics in Zaragoza (Spain) and his PhD from the UAB in Barcelona (Spain).
Since the start of his PhD (2002), Prof. Villanueva has been active in the fields of NEMS/MEMS for sensing, having expertise from the design and fabrication to the characterization and applicability. He has co-authored more than 55 papers in peer-reviewed journals (h-index of 14) and more than 70 contributions to international conferences.
He is serving, or has served, on the program committees of IEEE-NEMS, IEEE-Sensors, MNE and IEEE-FCS. He is currently co-organizing the conference MNE 2014 to be held at EPFL in September 2014.
