Dr. Adnane Abdelghani is a Professor in the National Institute of Applied Science and Technology (INSAT), Tunisia. He is working mainly in the field of Microsensors and Microsystems. He obtained the master degrees in "Microelectronics Devices" at the INSA of Lyon (France) in 1994, than a Ph.D. thesis from Ecole Centrale of Lyon (France) in 1997. He obtained a post-doc position in Germany between 1997-2000 in the field of biophysics He obtained a Habilitation in Physics in Tunisia in 2004 and a Habilitation in "Sciences pour l’Ingénieur" in 2009 at the Ecole Normale Supérieur de Cachan (France). He is the leader of research group working mainly on gas sensors based on Functionalized carbon nanotubes (metallic oxides nanowires, polymers) and on the development of biosensors (SPR, EIS, QCM) for medical diagnostics application. He organized two International Conferences in the Field of Nanotechnology in Tunisia with the Alexander Von Humboldt Foundation (Germany), and is an Editorial Board Member and Reviewer of many Nanotechnology related journals. He published more than 80 papers in International Journals and supervised more than 10 Ph.D. thesis and 30 master’s student. He edited two book chapters in the field of sensors.
