Philippe Renaud recently gave his honorary lecture after nearly 30 years as the head of the Microsystems Laboratory 4 in the School of Engineering. EPFL spoke with this iconic figure of microengineering research about his long career at our School.

Amputees feel warmth in their missing hand

19.05.23NewsEPFL

An unexpected discovery about temperature feedback has led to new bionic technology that allows amputees to sense the temperature of objects – both hot and cold – directly in the phantom hand. The technology opens up new avenues for non-invasive prosthetics.

Deployable electrodes for minimally invasive craniosurgery

11.05.23NewsEPFL

EPFL scientists have developed electrode arrays that can be funneled through a small hole in the skull and deployed over a relatively large surface over the brain’s cortex. The technology may be particularly useful for providing minimally invasive solutions for epileptic patients.
