Electrochemical sensors and biosensors for printed electronics and integrated smart systems (Printed Electronics & Photovoltaics USA 2010)

Dr. Anthony J. Killard is Principal Investigator at the Biomedical Diagnostics Institute and National Centre for Sensor Research, Dublin City University. He graduated from Trinity College, Dublin (1993) and Dublin City University (1998). His main areas of interest are in the use of conducting polymers for the development of electrochemical sensors and their integration with printed electronics and diagnostic devices.

The Biomedical Diagnostics Institute (BDI) is a Science Foundation Ireland CSET (Centre for Science, Engineering and Technology). Established in October 2005, the BDI is an Academic-Industrial-Clinical partnership that carries out cutting-edge research programmes focussed on the development of next-generation biomedical diagnostic devices. These devices are targeted at Point of Care applications: these include near-patient testing, self-testing in the home, and diagnosis of disease in the low-resource environments of the developing world.
