Microfluidic Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI)

Paul Pop is a professor at DTU Compute, Technical University of Denmark (DTU). He has received his Ph.D. degree in computer systems from Linkoping University in 2003. His main research interests are in the area of system-level design of embedded systems. He has published extensively in this area, and has received the best paper award at the DATE 2005, RTiS 2007, CASES 2009 and MECO 2013 conferences and the EDAA Outstanding Dissertations Award (co-supervisor) in 2011. Since 2008 he has also addressed Computer-Aided Design methods for biochips. His work in this area has received the best paper award at the CASES 2009 conference. He has co-organized and participated in tutorials and special sessions on CAD for biochips at conferences such as SOCC 2011, ESWEEK 2011, EMBC 2015 and ETS 2015.
