Claudio Bruschini

Claudio Bruschini (Senior Member, IEEE) received the Laurea degree in physics from the University of Genoa, Genoa, Italy, in 1992, and the Ph.D. degree in applied sciences from Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Brussels, Belgium, in 2002. He is currently a Scientist and a Lab Deputy with EPFL’s Advanced Quantum Architecture Laboratory. His scientific interests have spanned from high energy physics and parallel computing in the early days to challenging sensor applications in humanitarian demining, concentrating since 2003, on quantum photonic devices, high-speed and time-resolved 2-D/3-D optical sensing, as well as applications thereof (biophotonics, nuclear medicine, basic sciences, security, and ranging). He has authored or coauthored over 180 articles and conference proceedings and one book. Dr. Bruschini was a co-recipient of the 2012 European Photonics Innovation Award and the Image Sensors Europe 2019 Award in the category “Best Academic Research Team” and the Swiss Medtech Award 2016 finalist. He is an SPIE Senior Member and a co-founder of a startup commercializing selected AQUA laboratory SPAD designs.
