Jan G. Korvink

Jan G. Korvink is a Professor for Microsystems Engineering at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in South Germany, where he leads the Institute of Microstructure Technology.

He obtained his M.Sc. in mechanical engineering (specialising in computational mechanics) from the University of Cape Town in 1987, and his Ph.D. in applied computer science from the ETH Zurich in 1993. After his graduate studies, he joined the Physical Electronics Laboratory of the ETH Zurich, where he established and lead a MEMS Modelling Group. This was followed by a move in 1997 to the Albert Ludwig University in Freiburg, Germany. Dr. Korvink was also a director of the School for Soft Matter Research, Freiburg Institute for Advanced Studies. Since 2015 he directs the Institute of Microstructure Technology at KIT. He has written more that 200 journal papers in the area of microsystem technology, and co-edits the review journal Applied Micro and Nanosystems, see http://www.wiley-vch.de/books/info/amn.

His research interests cover the computational design and low cost fabrication of microsystems, with a focus on applications in magnetic resonance.
