MNE Fellow Award 2022
sponsored by
To promote micro- and nano-engineering in Europe, the MNE Steering Committee recognizes a researcher or engineer every year who has made outstanding contributions to fields addressed by the MNE conference. The aim is to honor a researcher or engineer who has inspired the MNE community by his/her leadership or outstanding work. This could, for example, be through leadership in the successful development and commercialization of a technology, the pioneering of a method or development of a tool with significant impact on current research or manufacturing methods, or an outstanding invention.
This year, the MNE Fellow award will go to Prof. Jürgen Brugger, from EPFL.
MNE-ES 2022 Best Poster Award
sponsored by
The MNE_ES conference gives much relevance to the poster session. Contributions selected for poster presentation do not have less scientific quality than contributions selected for oral presentation, but their contents are expected to be more suitable for communication in poster form. To highlight the importance of the poster session, awards are given to the best posters. The poster contest rules can be found here.
This year the awards are going to:
Track 1: Novel Developments in Nano/Micro Fabrication Methods and Processes (Excluding Etching)
Ms Chiara BARRI from Politecnico di Milano (Italy) - link to poster
Track 2: Fabrication and Integration of Micro/Nano Structures in Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems
Mr Mohammed ALKHALED and Mr Batukan KAYNAK from university Bilkent (Turkey) - link to poster
Track 3: Micro/Nano Engineering for Physical and Chemical Applications
Mr Ryan ADAMS from university of Cantebury (New Zealand) - link to poster
Track 4: Micro/Nano Engineering for Life Sciences
Ms Shahana BISHNOI, DTU (Denmark) - link to poster
MNE-ES 2022 Best Student Oral Presentation Award
sponsored by
and the Club Micro Capteurs Chimiques (CMC2)
Oral communication of scientific results is a key aspect of the role of a scientist or engineer. Besides the technical quality of the achieved results, the slides need to be well organized and supported by a clear speech, leading to an overall appealing and inspiring presentation. Oral contributions by students, selected on the basis of their abstract ranking, will be evaluated by a panel of MNE-ES experts with relevant experience. The award rules can be found here.
This year the awards are going to:

PESM Best Student Oral Presentation Award
sponsored by Tokyo Electron Ltd.
Oral communication of scientific results is a key aspect of the role of a scientist or engineer. Besides the technical quality of the achieved results, the slides need to be well organized and supported by a clear speech, leading to an overall appealing and inspiring presentation. Oral contributions by students, in the specific field of etching science and technology, will be evaluated by a panel of plasma etch experts with relevant experience. The award rules can be found here. The evaluation will be based solely on the performance of the presenters during the PESM special sessions.
The PESM Best Student Oral Award winner is Mr Jakub Dranczewski (IBM Research Europe - Zurich)

The 2022 Micro and Nano Engineering Journal, Young Investigator Award and Lectureship
sponsored byand by the MNE2022 conference
Honoring and Promoting a Young researcher active in the fields of Nanofabrication and Nanotechnology for Electronics, MEMS and Life Sciences
Microelectronic Engineering family (MEE/MNE) is proud to continue its long contribution started in 1983 in the field of processing for Micro- and Nano-scale Device and System fabrication. In the past 35 years MEE/MNE has expanded from the field of microelectronics to the fields of Nanotechnology and Microsystems following the rapid proliferation of microelectronics into many new areas and applications. Beyond electronics, MEE/MNE is now also focusing on fabrication of photonic, plasmonic, bioelectronic, electromechanical and fluidic devices and systems and their applications in the broad areas of electronics, energy, life sciences, and environment.
The 2022 Micro and Nano Engineering (Elsevier) Young Investigator Award and Lectureship
goes to
Dr. Sten Vollebregt
Delft University of Technology, Delft, The Netherlands.
For outstanding contributions to reproducible wafer-scale microfabrication with carbon-based materials.
