Research Fellow in Diagnostic Technology

I am an interdisciplinary scientist who had a bachelor's degree in engineering biotechnology, a master's degree in applied nanotechnology, and a doctorate degree from the Institute of Nanoengineering and Microsystems while working on Lab-on-chip sensors. My current research is developing the microfluidic lab-on-chip sensor system for medical diagnostis.

EEE is placed 65th in the world and seventh in the UK in the QS (Quacquarelli Symonds) rankings that are internationally recognised indicators of excellence to rate and rank the world's leading universities.

It joins Mechanical, Aeronautical and Manufacture Engineering that rises 12 places to 63rd in the world (sixth in the UK), and Engineering and Technology that is 85th in the world (seventh in the UK). Civil and Structural Engineering remains in the world's 51-100 place band.

As well as providing global rankings at institutional level, QS ranks universities in individual subject areas using data compiled from global surveys of academics and employers

Southampton's performance in all the areas listed is powered by the University's continued improvement in reputational rating among academic peers and employers around the world and good scores for research citations and 'h-index', which measures the productivity and impact of work published by scientists and scholars in each subject.

Associate Dean of Research, Engineering and Physical Sciences, Professor Robert Wood, said: "It is fantastic to see Electrical and Electronic Engineering being recognised so highly in these global rankings. It is a measure of success that reflects not only the hard work and dedication of our staff, but also our excellent facilities, the high quality of our students and the relevance and reach of our research in this discipline."

The University has 12 subjects ranked in the global top 100 - six are in the global top 50, twice as many as last year. This is a marque of consistent quality, indicative of its place among the best universities in the world.

Elsewhere in Engineering and Physical Sciences, Physics and Astronomy rises 11 places to 55th (seventh in the UK).

This continued success in the QS World University Rankings by Subject 2022, demonstrates and strengthens the University of Southampton's position as one of the world's leading universities.

My work revolves around proposing novel computational methods for machine learning with applications to text mining. Specifically, my work has centred around learning low-dimensional representations of natural language text on a large scale. Among others, I have developed a variety of probabilistic topic models, which have seen applications in text mining and information retrieval, as well as vector space embeddings, which have shown promising results in tasks such as knowledge base completion and commonsense reasoning.

Event details

​This talk will be divided into two segments:

The details of the talk and speakers are as follows: 

Talk 1 (12-12:25pm)
Title: Application of Laser Processing for Controlling IV Group Semiconductors Properties: Si, Ge, SiGe, GeSn
Speaker: Dr Pavels Onufrijevs (Riga Technical University)
Abstract:Lasers are highly versatile in semiconductor processing and have a wide range of applications. A new approach is proposed – to use a temperature gradient field induced by powerful pulsed laser radiation with the aim to generate and redistribute point defects and impurity atoms. In this case, there is a possibility to form a graded bandgap structure, form nano-cones, homo- and hetero-junction. The most recent topic of investigation is related to overcoming the equilibrium solubility of Sn atoms in Ge and the relaxation of residual strain in GeSn epitaxial layers by laser radiation. These results could be interesting for the formation of direct bandgap GeSn layers for the construction of IR photodiodes with controlled absorption spectra.

Talk 2 (12:25-12:50pm)Title: Application of Laser Processing for Controlling Material Properties: Tin Sulphides and Titanium
Speaker: Dr Liga Grase (Riga Technical University)
Abstract:Laser-induced changes in morphology and phase composition of tin sulphides and titanium allow us to obtain structures with enhanced properties. In the first case, tin disulphide thin films, obtained by close-spaced sublimation method, were irradiated by Nd:YAG laser in order to obtain a layer of tin monosulphide. Furthermore, irradiation of tin monosulphide leads to the formation of a layer of metallic Sn. By considering that n-SnS2 and p-SnS possessed different types of conductivity, this method could be used to obtain solar cells with metallic Sn contact. In the second case, titanium plates were irradiated by femtosecond laser in order to obtain laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) as well as change the chemical composition of the surface layer. Such structure showed enhanced antibacterial properties against S.aureus and E.coli bacteria in comparison with untreated Ti plates.
