Micromachines Beyond Silicon-Based Technologies: A Letter from the New Editor-in-Chief (Letter)

Abstract

It is my pleasure to assume the role of the Editor-in-Chief of Micromachines from March 2016. The journal was founded in 2009 by Prof. Miko Elwenspoek from the University of Twente, and published its first issue in 2010. Twenty years ago, I spent 6 months as a visiting PhD student in Prof. Elwenspoek’s research group of Transducers Science and Technology, working on thermal flow sensors. Taking over the responsibility from Prof. Elwenspoek is my personal honour that represents a true generation change in the leadership of our editorial board.
