Sensors in Medicine 2021 will be an extraordinary event, featuring among other things an exceptional panel of Speakers. This is a unique opportunity to hear - and network with - some of the outstanding researchers of the sensor community. Including in our guest speakers is Prof. Deblina Sarkar of MIT's Media Lab who will talk on "Of Computers, Brain and Neurological Diseases".
Deblina Sarkar is an assistant professor at MIT and AT&T Career Development Chair Professor at MIT Media Lab. She heads the Nano-Cybernetic Biotrek research group. Her inventions include, among others, a 6-atom thick channel quantum-mechanical transistor overcoming fundamental power limitations, an ultra-sensitive label-free biosensor and technology for nanoscale deciphering of biological building blocks of brain. Her PhD dissertation was honored as one of the top 3 dissertations throughout USA and Canada in the field of Mathematics, Physical sciences and all departments of Engineering.
In her talk, she will demonstrate the quantum mechanical transistor, which beats the fundamental energy limitations This device is the world's thinnest channel (6 atoms thick) sub-thermal tunnel-transistor. Thus, it has the potential to allow dimensional scalability to beyond Silicon scaling era and thereby to address the long-standing issue of simultaneous dimensional and power scalability. She will introduce the technology, which reveals for the first time, a nanoscale trans-synaptic architecture in brain and the way mother nature has engineered biomolecular organization in the brain to optimize its computing efficiency. She will conclude with her group’s research vision for how extremely powerful technologies can be built by fusing diverse fields and discuss briefly about the research directions of her new lab at MIT.
