Albert van den Berg
Albert van den Berg (* 1957 ) is a Dutch physicist who deals with ( nanotechnology ) miniaturization in physics, chemistry, biology and biotechnology ( nanofluidics , nanosensors , lab on a chip (LOC)).
Van den Berg received his PhD from the University of Twente in 1988 on chemically modified ISFETS . He then worked at the CSEM in Neuchâtel and at the Institute for Microtechnology (IMT) at the local university until 1993 . During this time he mainly worked on miniaturized chemical sensors. From 1993 to 1999 he was research director for miniaturized systems for chemical analysis ( Micro Total Analysis Systems , TAS) and chemical systems (Miniaturized Chemical Systems, MiCS) at the Institute for Nanotechnology (MESA) at the University of Twente. In 1998 he held a part-time professorship there and from 2000 a full professorship. In 2003 he became head of nanofluidics within the Dutch national nanotechnology program (Nanoned).
In 2002 he received the Simon Stevin Master Award from the Dutch Society for Technical Sciences. In 2009 he received the Spinoza Prize , the highest Dutch science award . He is a member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Sciences and its council.
