The SYNOPSIS project is a MSCA Global Postdoctoral Fellowship. It is carried out in collaboration with leading academic and research institutions, hosting the outgoing phase and return phase. The two institutions will combine complementary expertise in biomedical engineering, microfluidics, and data analysis.
Associated Partner (Outgoing Phase)
Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich), Switzerland
The outgoing phase of the SYNOPSIS project is hosted at ETH Zurich, within the Department of Biosystems Science and Engineering (D-BSSE), a leading center in microtechnology, bioengineering, and systems biology.
Supervion
During the outgoing phase of the project Dr. D'Orazio will be supervised by Prof. Dr. Andreas Hierlemann, full professor at the Department of Biosystems Science and Engineering (D-BSSE) of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH Zurich) and head of the Bioengineering Laboratory (BEL). His research focuses on CMOS-based systems, microtechnology, microsensors, microfluidics, and bioelectronics for applications in systems biology and biomedicine. He has authored over 340 publications and has extensive experience in supervising researchers across all career stages.
Host Institution (Return Phase)
University of Rome Tor Vergata, Italy
The University of Rome Tor Vergata is the host institution of the SYNOPSIS project. It is a leading Italian public university with strong expertise in electronic engineering, lab-on-chip technologies, and biomedical applications. The institution provides a multidisciplinary and highly innovative research environment, fostering collaboration between engineering, data science, and life sciences.
Supervision
During the return phase of the project Dr. D'Orazio will be supervised by supervised by Prof. Eugenio Martinelli, Full Professor at the Department of Electronic Engineering of the University of Rome Tor Vergata and head of the Bioinspired Electronic Engineering (BEE) group. The BEE group provides an interdisciplinary environment with strong expertise in lab-on-chip technologies, electronic interfaces, and data-driven biomedical systems, ensuring scientific guidance and access to advanced experimental and computational resources throughout the project.
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Framework Programme for Research and Innovation Horizon Europe (2021-2027) under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Grant Agreement No. 101202231.
