John Rogers: Breaking the Wall to Digital Health Monitoring

Research in Engineering and Technology influences our daily life, sometimes without us even noticing it. What ideas break down significant barriers, change the research field and offer solutions for current problems? Let's look at some of the groundbreaking projects shortlisted by the jury for the Falling Walls Science Breakthroughs of the Year 2022 in the Engineering and Technology category. Professor John A. Rogers obtained undergraduate degrees in chemistry and in physics from the University of Texas, Austin, in 1989. From MIT, he received SM degrees in physics and in chemistry in 1992 and the PhD degree in physical chemistry in 1995. From 1995 to 1997, Rogers was a Junior Fellow at Harvard University. He joined Bell Labs as a Member of Technical Staff and then as Director of the Condensed Matter Physics Department from 1997 to 2002. He then spent thirteen years on the faculty at the University of Illinois, most recently as Director of the Seitz Materials Research Laboratory. In 2016, he joined Northwestern University with appointments in Materials Science and Engineering, Biomedical Engineering and Medicine, where he is also Director of the Querrey-Simpson Institute for Bioelectronics. He is a member of the National Academy of Engineering, the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Medicine and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. John Rogers and his team have developed a number of new concepts in materials science, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering and advanced manufacturing that serve as the foundation for diverse, novel classes of 'biocompatible' electronic, optoelectronic and microfluidic systems designed to interface to nearly any locations across the human body. About the Falling Walls Science Summit The Falling Walls Science Summit is a leading international, interdisciplinary and intersectoral forum for scientific breakthroughs and science dialogue between global science leaders and society. The event takes place every year from 7–9 November in Berlin, commemorating the fall of the Berlin Wall. With formats Falling Walls Pitches (7 November), Falling Walls Circle (8 November) and Falling Walls Science Breakthroughs of the Year (9 November), the Falling Walls Science Summit is the leading forum for global science leaders from academia, business, politics, the media, and civil society to debate the potential of scientific breakthroughs to solve grand challenges and shape a sustainable future. The Falling Walls Science Summit is organised by the non-profit Falling Walls Foundation.
