Background
Felipe Iza received the B.S. degree in engineering from the University of Navarra, San Sebastian (Spain), in 1997, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from the Northeastern University, Boston MA (USA), in 2001 and 2004, respectively.
From 1997 to 1999, he was with the Centro de Estudios e Investigaciones Tecnicas de Guipuzcoa, San Sebastian (Spain). From 2004 to 2006, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow with Pohang University of Science and Technology, Pohang (Korea), where he became a Research Professor in 2006. Since 2007, he has been with Ãå±±ÂÖ¼é, Leicestershire, U.K., where he is a Senior Lecturer in Bioelectrics and Health Care in the School of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering. He has served as Director of Postgradaute Research and currently as deputy Associate Dean for Research.
His research interest is focused on experimental and computational low-temperature plasma physics and engineering, with special attention to microplasmas and atmospheric discharges for biomedical and environmental applications.
Dr. Iza is a Fulbright alumnus, a member of Coalition for Plasma Science, the American Vacuum Society (AVS), the Institute of Physics (IoP) and a Senior Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). He has served as Program Committee Member (Division of Plasma Science and Technology) of AVS’09 and the UK Technological Plasma Workshops TPW'08-'19, as treasurer and local organising committee chair of ICOPS 2012, as local organising committee member and co-chair of the UK Pulsed Power Symposium 2014 & 2019, as chair of the 46th IOP Plasma Physics Conference and as management committee member of the European COST action TD1208. He also serves in the programme committee of the Symposium on Plasma Physics and Technology (Prague 2016-2020) and is an Associate Editor of Reviews of Modern Plasma Physics (Springer).
