Dr. Marina Cole

Biography

Professor Marina Cole specializes in resonant sensors based on piezoelectric materials and instrumentation. She joined the Smart Sensors Devices Research Group at Warwick University in 1996 as a post-doctoral research assistant. During her years there, she worked on an EPSRC funded project focused on the design of intelligent gas array sensors for environmental monitoring. Professor Cole was appointed to a lectureship in electronic engineering and became a member of the Electrical & Electronic Engineering Division in September 1998, working in areas related to smart CMOS gas sensors and surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors for liquid applications. She has published over 30 technical papers in scientific journals and edited books for international conferences. Additionally, she served as a member of the technical program committee for the IEEE Sensors conference from 2002 to 2006 and has acted as a reviewer for Sensors & Actuators and the IEEE Sensors Journal. Professor Cole’s research interests include integrated silicon-based sensors, analog, digital mixed-signal ASIC devices, smart sensors, and actuators in microsystems. She is currently supervising three PhD students and an MPhil student, focusing on the EPSRC-funded development of novel implementation techniques for wavelet-based broadband signal detection systems.
