Biography
N. Ramakrishnan obtained his Bachelor of Engineering in Electronics and Communication from Madras University, India in 2002. Furthermore, he obtained his Master of Technology in Sensor System in 2004 from VIT University, India. He then obtained PhD in Nanotechnology for his findings on coupled resonance phenomenon in surface acoustic wave devices attached with resonant structures, from Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, India in 2011. Currently he is an associate professor in the School of Engineering, Monash University Malaysia. He is leading the Micro and Nano Devices research group in Monash Malaysia. His research interest includes micro sensors, acoustic wave sensors, nanostructured sensing medium, UV LED lithography, and wearable technology.
He has authored several refereed Journal articles, completed or ongoing 8 external grants as Principal Investigator, completed 6 PhD supervisions and is currently supervising 3 PhD students. He has received 6 international innovation awards, one supervision award, and 2 education excellence award in the last 5 years. Ramakrishnan has filed 4 patents and he is currently focused on translation research and working towards commercialisation of his research group outcomes. He also has immense interest in innovating teaching methods and has developed activity filled course to teach micro devices for undergraduate engineering students. He has also actively involved as outcome based education coordinator for his discipline 2012 to 2016.
