Speaker BiographyRuud Vullers obtained his M. Sc. in physics at the Radboud University of Nijmegen and a Ph.D. at the K.U. Leuven in 1994 and 2000, respectively. He then started as a researcher for Philips Research Laboratories in the area of Optical Storage. He worked on the fabrication and design of thin film coils for use in Magneto-Optical Storage, followed by research of recordable Blu-ray Disc. In 2006 he joined IMEC / Holst Centre, where he is Principal Researcher and activity leader in the micropower program. This program focuses on the development of energy harvesters, design of power management and evaluation of energy storage systems for use in autonomous wireless sensor nodes. He is (co)inventor of 10 patents (2 US patents), and has written several papers Company ProfileHolst Centre is an independent centre for open innovation that develops generic technologies and technology platforms for wireless autonomous transducer solutions and systems-in-foil. It is founded in 2005 by the research organizations IMEC and TNO. A key feature is interaction and cooperation with industry and academia. It is this kind of cross-fertilization that enables Holst Centre to tune its scientific strategy to industrial needs.
