Prof.dr.ir. Gijs Krijnen
UNIVERSITY OF TWENTE - Prof. Transducer Science, Robotics And Mechatronics Group
Prof. dr. ir. Gijs Krijnen’s interests are in bio-inspired transducers, parametric sensing schemes and sensor fabrication. He has been working on micro and nano fabrication and currently focuses on additive manufacturing in general and embedding sensors while 3D printing in particular. He has (co-) authored over 115 refereed journal papers, 11 book chapters and 250 conference contributions on a variety of subjects including nonlinear integrated optics, micro-mechanical sensors and actuators, biomimetic flow and inertial sensors and parametric and nonlinear transduction. He holds a PhD (cum laude) from the University of Twente, has been a fellow of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences and was awarded a VICI grant by the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research in 2005 for research on bio-inspired flow-sensors (BioEARS). He currently is with the Robotics and Mechatronics group of the University of Twente.
