School of Engineering postdoctoral researcher Gian Luca Barbruni has received the 2025 OMEGA Scientific Award for his interdisciplinary research combining microelectronics, nanotechnology, microengineering, electromagnetism, materials science, electrochemistry, and neuroscience.

A new intensive machining course gives microengineering students the opportunity to develop practical skills using the equipment and expertise of EPFL’s Technical Workshops Platform.

Gregor Taylor, a postdoctoral student in the School of Engineering’s Advanced Quantum Architecture Laboratory (AQUA), led by Edoardo Charbon, has received a Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) Ambizione grant for his project, “Superconducting Circuits for Superconducting Photon Detector Readout”.

For his PhD, Remco van Erp conducted pioneering research on liquid cooling systems that can be integrated directly into computer chips. He spoke with us about how the cross-disciplinary approach at EPFL’s POWERlab coupled with the boom in generative AI have catalyzed the growth of his startup, Corintis.

Researchers at EPFL and Harvard University have engineered a chip that can convert between electromagnetic pulses in the terahertz and optical ranges on the same device. Their integrated design could enable the development of devices for ultrafast telecommunications, ranging, spectroscopy, and computing.

Stéphanie Lacour, the Bertarelli Foundation Chair in Neuroprosthetic Technology in EPFL’s School of Engineering and head of the Laboratory for Soft Bioelectronic Interfaces, will deliver her inaugural lecture on neurotechnology at the Collège de France on Thursday, February 29, 2024.
