Stoyan Nihtianov (M'93-SM'98) received his M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electronics from the Technical University in Sofia, Bulgaria in 1980 and 1987. From 1987 till 1995 he was part of the Dept. of Electronics, Technical University - Sofia, where he was an associate professor involved in research and teaching on analogue circuits and smart sensor systems.

Dr. Nihtianov is a member of the technical program committees of: International Conference on Industrial Technology (ICIT), International Symposium on Industrial Electronics (ISIE), International conference "Electronics” (Bulgaria). He is an AdCom member and serves as a chair of the technical committee on MEMS@Nanotechnology of the Industrial Electronics society. He is also an associate editor of the IEEE Sensors Journal, and serves as an officer "Industrial relations and conferences” of the BeNeLux section of IEEE. Antonio Luque received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Seville, Seville, Spain, in 2000 and 2005, respectively. He currently holds the position of Associate Professor in the Department of Electronics Engineering, University of Seville.

His research interests include micro?uidics, inertial sensors, BioMEMS, and polymer microsystems. Dr. Luque was the Chairman of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society Technical Committee on MEMS and Nanotechnology in 2008-2009, and member of the IEEE JMEMS Steering Committee during 2013. He was a recipient of the Burgen Scholarship from the Academia Europaea in 2007.
