Professor Christofer Toumazou‘s (FRS, FREng, FIEEE, FIET, FRSM, FCGI, CEng, Deng, PhD) dedication to bringing semiconductor solutions to healthcare is a long and accomplished one. He established himself as a respected scientist early in his career with the invention and development of entirely novel concept of current-mode analogue circuitry for ultra-low-power electronic devices for which he was made Professor at Imperial College at 33, one of the youngest in history. Since then he has gone on to publish over 700 research papers and holds over 50 patents in the field semiconductors and healthcare. He is also the Founding Director and Chief Scientist at The Institute of Biomedical Engineering Imperial College London; Founder of Toumaz Technology; Director of the Winston Wong Centre for Bio Inspired Technology, and Professor of Bio-Inspired Technology. His recent awards include: 2011 IET JJ Thomson Medal, 2009 World Technology Award, and the UK’s highest honour in science-Fellowship of the Royal Academy of Engineering and Fellowship of the Royal Society. In recognition of Chris’ invention of the semiconductor DNA sequencing technology he was awarded the Royal Society Gabor Medal (2013), won the 2014 European Inventor Award from the EPO and the IET’s highest accolade, the Faraday Medal (2014) along with the IEEE Biomedical Engineering Award for 2015 and 2016 The European Electronics Industry (ELEKTRA) Life Time Achievement Award.
