CURRICULUM VITAE 
As a Full Professor at the University of Twente’s MESA+ Institute for Nanotechnology I chair an independent research line on quantum electronics within the NanoElectronics group. I am co-director of the Center for Quantum Nanotechnology Twente (QUANT), and coordinator of the Horizon Europe project ONCHIPS. Below you can find a relatively technical description or my research. These videos are reasonably accessible for a broader audience: ONCHIPS, TOPSQUAD and QUANT. Here are a Dutch radio interview and podcast about Quantum physics and technology (Sep 2021).
