Dr. Shanmuga Sundar Dhanabalan is an accomplished researcher with a proven track record in designing, developing, and translating micro- and nano-scale devices. His primary objective is to create next-generation products that enhance quality of life and well-being, making a significant contribution to society. He currently leading a team ‘Wearable and Connected Sensors – Functional Materials and Microsystems research group’ at RMIT University, with a focus on materials, flexible and stretchable devices, wearables, optics, and photonics. He graduated with a Ph D in flexible electronics and secured a competitive postdoctoral fellowship from the Chilean government from 2018 to 2021. His studies have led to publications in referred international journals, book chapters, and books in progress as editor. He has presented plenary/keynote, invited talks and guest lectures, oral and poster presentations at scientific meeting at various universities world-wide. Several outcomes have been highlighted by scientific websites (such as Photonics Media, USA). His research work has led to securing grants from Australian government research schemes, such as the Cooperative Research Centres Projects, the ARC Research Hub for Connected Sensors for Health, Victorian Medical Research Acceleration Fund, and the Advanced Manufacturing Growth Centre’s Commercialisation Fund.
He has collaborations with universities from various countries, including India, Australia, Chile, Mexico, and Bangladesh. He has served as a reviewer for over 20 prestigious specialist journals. He also served as a topical editor for highly reputed journals including IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics, IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Magazine, IEEE, Energies, Computer and Electrical Engineering. He is a part of the Editorial Board of American Journal of Optics and Photonics. In addition, he served as a session chair and technical committee member in various international conferences.
Dr. Arun Thirumurugan is an assistant professor at the University of Atacama, Sede Vallenar, Vallenar, Chile. He has completed his Ph D (2010-2015) from the National Institute of Technology (NIT), Tiruchirappalli, India. He has worked as a postdoctoral fellow (2015-2017) at the Institute of Physics, Bhubaneswar, India, and then worked as a FONDECYT postdoctoral fellow (2017-2020) at the University of Chile, Santiago, Chile. His research interests are in synthesizing and surface modification of nanomaterials for the potential applications in energy and environmental applications.
