Biography
I received a BSc and MEngSc (Mechanical Engineering) degree from the University Twente, The Netherlands in 1986 and 1989 respectively. After some consultancy work involving product/equipment development I joined Digital Equipment Corporation, Galway, Ireland as a project engineer from 1989 until 1992 in the Advanced Manufacturing Technology group. It involved developing microelectronic interconnection processes such as Tape Automated Bonding (TAB) for Multi Chip Units (MCU's) used in mainframe computer systems. In conjunction with this I developed an Expert System to select solder joint designs for circuit assemblies comprising Integrated Circuit and other electronic components. In 1992 I started as a research scientist in the Tyndall National Institute (then National Microelectronics Research Centre) in Cork, Ireland, to further develop my expertise in the "advanced interconnect" area. Assembly processes such as solder and conductive adhesive flip-chip and encapsulated wirebonds for Chip-on-Board were investigated. In 1996 I became a Senior Research Scientist and worked on various topics like environmental electronics, lead-free soldering development and characterisation, sensor packaging, and microassembly of novel optical, acoustic and gas sensing devices. In 2002 I setup a Biomedical Microsystems team to utilise my microelectronics expertise for developing minimal invasive and implantable microsystems. This required combining sensing technologies (e,g, radiation detection, pressure & electrochemical sensing) with inductive powering, wireless communication, software and system integration. Novel medical devices such as a swallowable diagnostic capsule, a radiation monitoring endoscope, a deep brain stimulator, an oesophageal cancer treatment device, a retinal implant, a somatosensory provoked signal monitoring system, and a drop foot stimulation implant, are examples that were developed. In 2010 I started the coordination of an EU research project Heart-e-Gel in which Electroactive Hydrogels were used for treating cardiovascular diseases via minimal invasive delivery and deployment of the smart gels. Following from this I got involved in a combined EU (Ecsel JU) and Irish (EI) project INCITE on smart catheters, coordinated by Philips, in which an FFR pressure sensing solution was integrated in the outer wall of a 2 FR (0.67mm diameter) catheter. Over time I have worked on 28 National and European funded research projects (as well as many industry funded projects). Research Grants
