Ashwin A Seshia
Ashwin A. Seshia received his B.Tech. in Engineering Physics in 1996 from IIT Bombay, and M.S. and Ph.D degrees in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences from the University of California, Berkeley in 1999 and 2002 respectively where he was affiliated with the Berkeley Sensor & Actuator Center.

He joined the faculty of the Engineering at the University of Cambridge in October 2002 where he is currently a Lecturer in Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems group and a Fellow of Queens' College. His research interests include the design and fabrication of micro- and nano-scale sensory systems with applications to the monitoring and study of the natural and synthetic world.

He has contributed to the development of micromechanical inertial sensors, micromechanical resonator oscillators for timing references, capillary electrophoresis chips and MEMS-based biosensing, and has led a number of research projects in these areas over the years.

He is a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). In 2007 he received an EPSRC Follow-on Fund grant (co-funded by the ERA Foundation).
