Vis­it­ing Pro­fes­sor­ship for IHP Sci­en­tist

Gio­vanni Capellini, Pro­fes­sor at Università Degli Studi Roma Tre and se­nior sci­en­tists at IHP – Leib­niz In­sti­tute for High Per­for­mance Mi­cro­elec­tron­ics, has been ap­pointed the Boel­ter Chair in En­gi­neer­ing at the Henri Samueli School of En­gi­neer­ing and Ap­plied Sci­ences, Uni­ver­sity of Cal­i­for­nia Los An­ge­les (UCLA) dur­ing the sum­mer 2022.

The ro­tat­ing Boel­ter Chair is a pres­ti­gious vis­it­ing pro­fes­sor­ship ap­point­ment and is re­served for highly dis­tin­guished in­di­vid­u­als, es­pe­cially those in­volved in multi-​disciplinary re­search and ed­u­ca­tion. Prof. Gio­vanni Capellini will focus his re­search at UCLA on the de­vel­op­ment of in­no­v­a­tive bio-​sensing meth­ods.

“I am very hon­ored by the ap­point­ment”, says Gio­vanni Capellini. “Dur­ing my visit, I am in­ves­ti­gat­ing how the pi­o­neer­ing plas­monic sens­ing ap­proaches pro­posed by Prof. Xie’s group, with whom I col­lab­o­rate, can be fur­ther de­vel­oped and pos­si­bly in­te­grated in Si-​based tech­nolo­gies”.
