Jacques FellayJacques Fellay is a medical scientist with expertise in infectious diseases and human genomics. He obtained his MD from the University of Lausanne in 2002 and his PhD from University of Utrecht. After a clinical training in infectious diseases in Switzerland and a 4-years postdoctoral fellowship at Duke University, he joined the EPFL in April 2011 with an SNF Professorship.
On top of his EPFL affiliation, Jacques is also Head of Precision Medicine at the University Hospital (CHUV) in Lausanne, Group Leader at the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics, and Co-director of the Health2030 Genome Center at Campus Biotech in Geneva.
Mandresy Ivan Ny HanitraIvan received in 2013 a bachelor degree in Physics and Chemistry from Grenoble Institute of Technology (France), after two years of intensive training at Lycée Pierre de Fermat (France). He currently holds a master degree in Micro and Nanotechnologies for Integrated Systems, a joint degree between Politecnico di Torino (Italy), Grenoble Institute of Technology (France), and EPFL. During this international training, he acquired knowledge in Semiconductor physics and technology, Microtechnology (cleanroom practice), Microelectronics (analog/digital circuits design), Nanoelectronics (state-of-the art of emerging electron devices), Micro-nano systems modelling, VLSI design and testing, Embedded systems, and Optoelectronics. He pursued his master thesis at EPFL, in Electronics Laboratory (Prof. Kayal), developing low-power systems for photoplethysmographic-based heart rate monitoring. Ivan joined the Integrated Systems Laboratory (Prof. De Micheli), in October 2016, where he designed and realized in cleanroom multi-sensing platforms for electrochemical sensing applications.
