Sybren Santermans

dr. Sybren Santermans holds a Ph.D. in Materials Engineering from the University of Leuven (KU Leuven), Belgium (2021) and joined the Electrical Function and Test (EFT) group post-Ph.D. at imec. His current focus lies in the characterization, modelling, and simulation of FET-based, nanopore, and electrochemical sensors designed for life science applications.  

During his Ph.D., Santermans focused on the modelling and characterization of silicon bioFET sensors for a prospective high-throughput single-molecule sensing platform, in collaboration with imec. He obtained a Master of Engineering Science degree in nanoscience, nanotechnology, and nanoengineering with a focus on nanobiotechnology in 2017 at the University of Leuven.
