Electronics and Electrical Engineering

An Electrical and Mechanical Engineer by training, Camilla now teaches about sustainable energy and researches the environmental impacts of energy. Currently this mostly involves developing better tools and techniques to analyse the climate change impact or carbon footprint of changes to the electricity system: whether new renewable energy developments, new transmission lines or even new market operations.

Camilla is a Co-Investigator in the EnergyREV project, leading the work package on developing a Multi-Criteria Assessment tool for Smart Local Energy Systems. She is also the Deputy Co-ordinator on the NEWEST-CCUS project, and is leading a multi-disciplinary international team on the specific task of robustly quantifying the atmospheric-carbon-reduction-potential of waste-to-energy plants with carbon capture and storage.

Camilla is also a keen advocate for diversity in Engineering. She is the founding chair of the School's Molly Fergusson Initiative, and was named one of the Top 50 Women in Engineering - Sustainability in 2020.

David holds a Bachelor’s degree in Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering from ESPOL Polytechnic University, Ecuador, and a Master’s degree in Engineering from the University of Applied Sciences and Arts of Southern Switzerland. From 2016 to 2022, he served as a full-time lecturer and researcher at ESPOL Polytechnic University. He is currently pursuing a PhD at the Advanced Care Research Centre, University of Edinburgh, Scotland, UK.David has extensive experience in the design of electronic systems for health monitoring systems. He has contributed to projects focused on gait analysis in Parkinson's disease, impedance spectroscopy for pulmonary oedema detection, and transcutaneous tibial nerve stimulation for the treatment of overactive bladder. His research interests include biomedical engineering applications and the adoption of technology, with a particular emphasis on older adults.

Spyros has a background in semiconductor physics and currently works on the realisation, fabrication and characterisation ofnovel devices based on semiconductors and thin films. His main research interest is around heterogeneous integration of thin filmsand semiconductors to enable applications in novel memories and beyond-CMOS electronics. He is also responsible for developingnew fabrication and testing processes that cut across the different CEF areas of research.
