Through incredible demonstrations, David Ricketts deploys high-voltage science to explain how spark generators, ion-powered motors and aircraft work. See the wonders of elusive plasma toroids and the magical Gassiot Fountain, often used as the grand finale of Victorian high-voltage science demonstrations. Of course no... Speaker: David Ricketts Professor NC State Ricketts received his Ph.D. in engineering and applied sciences from Harvard University and his BS and MS degrees in electrical engineering from Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Prior to joining academia, he spent eight years in industry developing more than 40 integrated circuits in mixed-signal, RF and power management applications. Ricketts' research crosses the fields of physics, materials science and circuit design, investigating the ultimate capabilities of microelectronic devices and how these devices are harnessed by differing circuit topologies to produce the highest performing systems.

One emerging trend is the use of skin as a sample matrix for monitoring metabolites like glucose, lactate, and ketones. While substantial progress has been made in subdermal metabolite monitoring, translating these paradigms into... Speaker: Sanjiv Sharma Swansea University Dr. Sanjiv Sharma received his PhD on the development of analytical methods for determination of certain pharmaceuticals and their metabolites using miniaturised separation system in 2001. His PhD supervised by Dr Sunil Kumar Sanghi. He then performed postdoctoral research in the areas of high throughput sequencing, clinical proteomics and miniaturised analytical systems in France and Germany from 2001-2004. In 2004, he was awarded a Chevening Technology Fellowship to work with Professor Andrew deMello on microfluidic systems in the Department of Chemistry at Imperial College London. On completion of his fellowship he joined the Institute of Biomedical Engineering, to work with Professor Tony Cass in the area of Bionanotechnology and Biosensors. Here he developed minimally invasive microneedles, from photolithographic fabrication to high throughput fabrication, taking these microneedles from the lab to the clinic. Sanjiv is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC) and the Higher Education Academy (FHEA) He has published over 75 research articles and has patents filed in Germany, UK and the United States. Sanjiv is currently a Senior Lecturer in Medical Engineering in the Department of Engineering at Swansea University. At Swansea, he is working on therapeutic drug delivery and diagnostic (theranostic) applications of polymeric microneedles. He is taking up an academic position in the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Liverpool from August 2024. See more details •	13	14
