Luca De Vito is Associate Professor of Electronic Measurement at the Department of Engineering, University of Sannio. In Aug. 2018 he received the National Academic Qualification as Full Professor.

He is member of the IEEE since 2010 and Senior Member of the IEEE since 2012.

He is Member-at-Large of the IEEE IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Society (IMS) AdCom for the term 2022-2025, and Region 8 Liaison of the IEEE IMS.

He is editor of Measurement and Measurement:Sensors (Elsevier).

He was Technical Program Co-chair of the IEEE International Symposium on Medical Measurements and Applications (MeMeA) in 2015, 2016 and 2017 and he is Associate Technical Program Chair of the International Instrumentation and Measurement Technology Conference (I2MTC) for the track “Signal Processing for Measurement” since 2018.

Silvia Conforto is Full Professor of Bioengineering at DIIEM, University of Roma Tre.

Her main research interests concern signal and image processing in biomedical field, human motion analysis, motor control. He devoted particular attention to the techniques of surface myoelectric signal processing in static and dynamic conditions. Since 2004 he has worked in the development of devices for sports performance evaluation. In this field he is co-inventor of a national patent and two international patents. More recently he started to work on ergonomics and quantitative biomechanical risk assessment.

Since 2000, she has worked in many research projects founded by national (FIRB, PRIN) and international (EU-FP7) institutions and she was the winner of the 2015 and 2019 BRIC calls provided by INAIL.

Dr. Lindner graduated at Technical University of Budapest (TUB) in 1971 and started to work in the same institution. At TUB he studied the response mechanism of ion-selective electrodes (ISEs). Between 1996 and 1999 he worked in the NSF Engineering Research Center at Duke University where he developed microfabricated chemical sensors for monitoring the chemical markers of induced ischemia and worked on the biocompatibility of implanted sensors. Since 1999, he works at the University of Memphis (UM). At the UM he developed sensors with short equilibration time and superb long-term stability. The sensors developed in Dr. Lindner’s laboratory are used for monitoring Na⁺ ion concentrations and CO₂ levels in the urine and highly hydrophobic drugs in whole blood, like the fast-acting anesthetic drug propofol. Most recently he works on the synthesis of reagent-loaded porous polymeric nanocapsules for the measurement of the pH and glucose concentrations in sub-microliter samples. Dr Lindner is author of about 200 scientific papers (h-index=46 in Google Scholar).
