Damien Querlioz develops new concepts in nanoelectronics relying on bio-inspiration. He believes that nanoelectronics can allow inventing highly energy-efficient forms of memory-centric computing. He investigates stochastic approaches, the use of spintronics devices for bioinspired systems, and the connection between bioinspired memories and Bayesian inference. His research interests have also included the physics of advanced nanodevices. He has developed the Wigner Monte Carlo approach to simulate and understand quantum transport in nanometer-scale devices.
