معرفی
Gabriel Aeppli is Full Professor at ETH Zurich's Department of Physics and Professor of Physics at EPFL, concurrently serving as Head of the Photon Science Division at Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI). He oversees 300+ staff and major facilities including SwissFEL and Swiss Light Source, managing a CHF 350M annual budget. His MIT education includes:
- BSc in Mathematics & Electrical Engineering
- MSc in Electrical Engineering
- PhD in Electrical Engineering
His research integrates nanotechnology, photon science, and quantum engineering to address biomedical diagnostics and quantum information processing. Key projects develop optical/microwave tools for drug-target binding assays and THz-controlled quantum systems in silicon. Research emphasizes specificity, quantitative precision, and scalable implementations for practical applications.
Recent publications (2016-2019) demonstrate cross-disciplinary innovation in non-destructive imaging, quantum state control, viral detection lasers, and nanomaterial interfaces, bridging physics, engineering and biomedicine.
Major scientific honors include:
- Oliver Buckley Prize (APS)
- Neel Medal/IUPAP Magnetism Prize
- Royal Society Fellowship
- National Academy of Sciences membership
He directs PSI's Technology Transfer initiatives and co-founded London Centre for Nanotechnology. Institutional roles encompass ETH Domain data science coordination and senior recruitment at PSI.
