Abstract
Bio
Michel Calame is head of the laboratory for Transport at Nanoscale Interfaces at the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science & Technology (Empa) and Professor of Nanoscience at the Department of Physics, University of Basel. He received his PhD in condensed matter physics at the University of Neuchâtel (1998) and spent a postdoc in biophysics at the Rockefeller University (NY, USA) before joining the University of Basel in 2000. In Basel, he was leading a research group on Nanoscale Hybrid Electronic Systems since 2011 and was staff member of the Swiss Nanoscience Institute (SNI), coordinating the SNI PhD program from 2013 until 2016. His research interests are on the fundamental electronic and opto-electronic transport properties of nanoscale devices and their application as bio-chemical sensors.
