eMATI is currently contributing to the organization of the Micro Nano Engineering - Eurosensors conference (MNE-ES 2022)
June 2022 Excited and glad for a newly funded interdisciplinary project: DuGluMo! This project will will set new benchmarks in the field of glucose sensing thanks to a close cooperation between 4 different Departments and 3 Faculties at the KU Leuven!
DuGluMo will give to KU Leuven high visibility in the field of biosensing for diabetes monitoring and will open many R&D collaboration opportunities at a national and international level!
A big thanks goes to a wonderful team of colleagues Inge Depoortere, Daniel Escudero Masa, André Vantomme and Ewald Janssens!
Stay tuned 😊
December 2022 Glad to be awarded to the Small research infrastructure grant (PotenGo project) worth ~80k € to buy a high-end, high-current potentiostat that will be placed in the #KULeuven #NanoCentre. This tool will be key for the development of groundbreaking electrochemical materials, devices and systems!
A big thank you to my colleagues who supported the project: Pedro Fardim, Frederik Ceyssens, Michael Kraft, Carmen Bartic, Jean-Pierre Locquet, Ewald Janssens, Peter Lievens & Didier Grandjean
December 2022 New VLAIO project won with SCK CEN (radiobiology).
The project will develop organ-on-chip sensors to monitor cardiac tissue, benefiting applications in space for a deeper understanding of the adverse outcome pathways leading to cardiac aging, in particular the ones that are radiation-induced.
Supervisors: Kevin Tabury & Bjorn Baselet
Promoters: Irene Taurino
December 2022 A newly funded project on the development of a multi-parametric sensor for continuous electrochemical monitoring of yeast fermentation: SteerFerm!!!!
We will deliver ready-to-use pre-prototypes that monitor key variables for #yeast growth.
This milestone is crucial for making a bridge with companies that will move the technology to a development stage!!!
A big thank you to Michael Kraft, Nurul Izni Rusli, Kevin Verstrepen & Dimitris Konstantinidis

June 2023 Great news 😊 again! We got funded another three-years project with high TRL: QuantPAH!!!!
We will deliver ready-to-use prototypes for a rapid quantification of metabolites in the urine of firefighters!
Thank you to my colleagues Jeroen Vanoirbeek & Patrick Wagner
June 2023 MSCA Staff Exchange Program... won!!!
Bicyclos aims at foster new applications of Cyclodextrins-based systems as drugs, delivery systems or sensors. The consortium features 11 partners with 4 coming from the private sector!
Congrats to all of us and looking forward to start this wonderful adventure! #euMSCA
June 2023 Amazing news 😊 again! We got funded another four-years project!!!!
HumiPlast aims at addressing the bottlenecks of wearable sensors to track plant stress in real time by proposing groundbreaking devices developed with a new and unexploited printing technique and a truly interdisciplinary approach!
A big THANK YOU goes to my colleagues Veerle Bloemen, Arn Mignon & Bram Van de Poel!
June 2023 I am delighted to announce that Dr. Batist Geldhof has won his FWO postdoctoral fellowship and will be joining my team on October 1st 😊
We look forward to our collaboration over the next three years!
We will embark on groundbreaking research in the field of plant diagnostics!
A special thank you goes to the project co-PI Bram Van de Poel 😊
TALENT - Towards advanced thin-film depositions and patterning using dry etching
June 2024 This proposal aims to significantly advance thin-film deposition and patterning techniques available at KU Leuven by acquiring state-of-the-art equipment.
June 2025 Together with my colleague and friend Jon Ustarroz, we secured funding for the MoProClock project. A heartfelt thank you goes to Catarina Fernandes for her dedication in collecting the preliminary data that made this possible! With MoProClock we aim to push the boundaries of programmable bioresorbable sensors, particularly in electrochemical applications.
June 2025 With MedEco, Mitty's FWO project, we aim to advance programmable bioresorbable substrates for transient electronics!
