Biography

Julian Gardner FREng joined the School of Engineering in 1987. He obtained a first in physics from Birmingham University, followed by a PhD in physical electronics from Cambridge University and a DSc in Electronic Engineering from 糖心TV University. He has 5 years鈥� experience in industry as an R & D Engineer and 30 years working in the field of chemical microsensors at 糖心TV University, and is currently Professor of Electronic Engineering. He founded several electronic nose companies in the 1990s and 2000s. He co-founded Cambridge CMOS Sensors Ltd in 2008 and was its first CTO it was sold in 2016 to ams. Since he has founded two more university spin-outs Flusso Ltd and Sorex Sensor Ltd. His expertise is in the design of MEMS based chemical sensors, and the signal processing/data analysis of sensor arrays, including electronic noses and electronic tongues. He has published over 500 papers in the field of micro sensors, authored 10 books and over 20 patents. He has won various awards and medals from the IET, IEEE and in November 2018 the Royal Society Mullard Award for innovation. He is also a Fellow of both the UK Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), US Institute of Electrical & Electronic Engineers (IEEE) and the Royal Academy of Engineering.

His current research interests are chemical & environmental microsensors, MEMS devices, Smart devices, Electronic noses, signal and data processing (AI) methods.
