Biography

Born in 1995 in Savigliano (Italy) Enrico received both his Bachelor’s degree in Electronic Engineering and Master degree in Electronic Engineering - Electronic Micro&Nano Systems from the Polytechnic University of Turin. He carried out his Master Thesis work regarding Microfluidic devices for Biomedical applications at the Pázmány Péter Catholic University of Budapest. Currently, he is working as an PhD student / Early Stage Researcher in the group of Serge Massar at the Université Libre de Bruxelles where he is working on Neuromorphic Photonic Computing in the context of the POST-DIGITAL network - the European Training Network on Post-Digital Computing – focusing on Photonic Reservoir Computing and its interface with digital hardware.
