Dr. Carlos Mastrangelo

Vice President, Engineering, Corning IntelliSense

Dr. Mastrangelo is world-renowned for his expertise in microsensor and microelectromechanical system applications and technology.  Prior to Corning IntelliSense, Dr. Mastrangelo was awarded a tenured professorship in the EECS Department of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, where he conducted research on integration, design, and modeling of complex fabrication processes. He also worked at the Scientific Research Laboratory of Ford Motor Company, developing microsensors for automotive applications. 

Dr. Mastrangelo was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1960. He received the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering and computer science in 1985, 1988, and 1991 all from the University of California, Berkeley. His graduate work concentrated in the applications of microbridges in microsensor technology. In 1987, he was awarded the AT\&T Ph.D. fellowship award. In 1991, he received the Sakrison award for best dissertation in the department. In the same year, he received the 1991 Counsel of Graduate Schools/University Microfilms Distinguished Dissertation Award for best technical dissertation in U.S. and Canada.

He worked at the Scientific Research Laboratory of Ford Motor Company, Dearborn, MI from 1991 through 1992 developing microsensors for automotive applications. Dr. Mastrangelo has received a 1993 NSF Research Initiation Award, a 1994 NSF Young Investigator Award, and several grants from the National Institute of Health. From 1995 to 2000, Dr. Mastrangelo served on the organizing committee of the SPIE Micromachining Conference, and as a Section Editor of the Sensors and Actuators Journal.

He has focus his research on microsensor and microelectromechanical system applications and technology, and on integration, design, and modeling of complex fabrication processes. His main area of research is in microfluidic systems for DNA diagnostics.
