Luis Guillermo Villanueva TorrijoGuillermo Villanueva is a Tenure Track Assistant Professor at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausane (EPFL), Switzerland, in the Mechanical Engineering Institute (IGM). 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 75 papers in peer-reviewed journals (h-index of 24 WoK, 32 GoS) and more than 100 contributions to international conferences.
He is serving, or has served, on the program committees of IEEE-NEMS, IEEE-Sensors, MNE, IEEE-FCS and Transducers. He is editor of Microelectronic Engineering. He has co-organized MNE2014 and SNC2015; and he is currently co-organizing the short courses at Transducers 2019 and the 16th International Workshop on Nanomechanical Sensors (NMC2019).
Paul BowenDr. P.

Jacques-Edouard MoserProfesseur titulaire en chimie physique, Jacques Moser dirige actuellement le Groupe de dynamique photochimique (Groupe Moser) de l'EPFL. Jacques Moser est diplômé de l'École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), où il a reçu en 1982 un diplôme d'ingénieur chimiste et en 1986 un doctorat ès sciences pour sa thèse en chimie physique, menée sous la direction du Pr Michael Grätzel. En 1984 et 1985, il effectue deux séjours à l'Université Concordia de Montréal (Canada). A partir de 1986, il rejoint les laboratoires de recherche centraux de Eastman-Kodak Co. à Rochester (New York, USA) et est ensuite associé au Center for photoinduced charge transfer du NSF à l'Université de Rochester. De retour à l'EPFL, Jacques Moser dirige depuis 1991 un groupe de recherche dans le domaine de la photochimie. Il est chargé de cours à partir de 1992 et reçoit en 1998 l'habilitation ès sciences techniques et le titre de privat-docent. Il est nommé professeur titulaire en 2005. L'activité de recherche du Groupe Moser se focalise plus particulièrement sur létude de la dynamique des processus de transfert d'électron induits par la lumière aux interfaces et de séparation de charges dans des semiconducteurs nanostructurés. Le Pr Moser enseigne la chimie générale avancée (Équilibre et réactivité chimiques) en première année aux étudiants en chimie de l'EPFL. Il dispense les cours Photochemistry I et Photochemistry II aux étudiants de Master et des écoles doctorales en chimie, en énergie et en photonique. Lauréat du prix de la fondation Latsis internationale, Jacques Moser est auteur et co-auteur de près de 200 publications dans des revues scientifiques à comité de lecture (H-index = 75). Il a été président de la Société suisse de photochimie et photophysique, membre du comité international de l'European Photochemistry Association, membre de la direction centrale de la Société suisse de chimie (SSC) et membre du comité executif de la division Recherche scientifique de la SSC. Il a été le directeur de la Section de chimie et de génie chimique de l'EPFL et l'un des membres de la direction de la Faculté des sciences de base de 2007 à 2015.
