Speakers
Prof. Carmen Mas Machuca
Professor of Communication Networks at the Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology
Universität der Bundeswehr München - Germany
Carmen Mas Machuca received her Master’s degree in communications engineering from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), Spain in 1996, her PhD degree in engineering from the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland in 2000, and her habilitation from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) in 2017.
Since 2005 and prior to her appointment at UniBw M, Prof. Mas Machuca had been working at the Chair of Communication Networks at TUM. Her research interests cover several topics related to the optimal network planning taking reliability, resources, service requirements, security and/or cost into account. This planning is applied to single and multiple domains or technologies as well as to new solutions (e.g. QKD). Prof. Mas Machuca’s expertise covers both data and control planes. Her research is supported by several national (DFG, BMBF, DAAD) and EU funds (H2020, COST, ITN) like the currently ongoing BMBF funded project FRONT-RUNNER on reliable optical access networks.
The contribution of Prof. Carmen Mas Machuca in the research community is evident in more than 150 scientific publications in international journals and conferences. She is a guest editor for IEEE TNSM and IEEE COMMAG. Furthermore, she is also active in international conferences as chair, TPC co-chair, and TPC member. She has been an IEEE Senior Member since 2012.
Prof. Cristina Kurachi
Professor at the Physics Institute of São Carlos (IFSC) - University of São Paulo (USP)
She is currently an associate professor at the University of São Paulo and CNPq PQ2 researcher. She holds a degree in Dentistry from the University of São Paulo (1996), a master’s degree in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of São Paulo (2000) and a PhD in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of São Paulo (2005). She has experience in the area of Biophotonics, with an emphasis on the interaction of light with biological systems, optical diagnosis and photodynamic therapy, applied to cancer and infected tissues. The lines of research involve the development of biomedical instrumentation and clinical protocols applying photonic techniques.
Prof. Débora Marcondes Bastos Pereira
Coordinator of the National Agro-photonics Laboratory (LANAF) - Embrapa, Brazil
She holds a bachelor’s, master’s and doctorate in Physics from the São Carlos Physics Institute – University of São Paulo (USP), specializing in optical techniques and photonics. Since 2001, she has been a researcher at Embrapa Instrumentação, São Carlos/SP, where she is also currently the Deputy Head of Technology Transfer, which covers the innovation and business agenda with private companies. Her research area at Embrapa is optics and photonics applied to agriculture and the environment and since 2003 she has led the CNPq research group “Optics applied to agriculture and the environment”. In 2021, under her coordination, the first National Agro-photonics Laboratory (Lanaf) was approved, supported by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation, within the SISFOTON initiative. It works with the development of methods, sensors and equipment for analyzing soils, plants, fertilizers and foods. In this research line, she highlights her unprecedented work, worldwide, in the development of a method and automated equipment using optical emission spectroscopy with laser-induced plasma – LIBS – for quantifying carbon, nutrients and contaminants in the soil, as well as the development of portable systems for the early diagnosis of plant diseases in the field. The know-how developed on the applications of the LIBS technique for soil analysis generated a spin-off of Lanaf, Agrorobótica.
