Amar KapicHe graduated with B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Power and Control Systems from the University of Montenegro, with high distinction. During his master studies he took part in an International Exchange Programme at the University of Sapienza, Rome. His master research was focused on the proposal of novel adaptive algorithms for maximum power point tracking for photovoltaic systems which led to publication of two conference papers. In 2017 he participated in a Summer Student Programme at CERN while in 2018 he did a year-long internship (Technical Studentship) at the same laboratory. His responsibility was to design a setup for testing humidity and temperature sensors for CMS detector, program PLCs and create a SCADA system to monitor and control sensors’ data during the testing period. In January 2019 he joined Integrated Circuits Laboratory (ICLAB) at EPFL and is currently pursuing his Ph.D. in Microsystems and Microelectronics under the supervision of Prof. Sandro Carrara. He is currently based at CERN and as a member of CMX group he is working on development of humidity sensors for High Energy Physics applications.
