集成微纳系统研究所（IMNS）将来自集成电路设计，片上系统设计，图像传感器设计，生物电子学，微/纳米加工，微机电系统（MEMS），微加工，神经计算的研究人员聚集在一起以及可重构和自适应计算。研究兴趣包括低级模拟，低功耗，自适应和受生物启发的方法，片上系统计算以及从电信到金融和天文学的应用。还有一个研究重点是将CMOS微电子技术与传感器和微系统/ MEMS集成在一起以创建智能传感器系统。我们对与生命科学和医学相关的应用也有浓厚的兴趣，并且不断增长，尤其是对生物电子，生物光子学和生物MEMS的关注。IMNS在
The Institute for Integrated Micro and Nano Systems (IMNS) brings together researchers from integrated-circuit design, system-on-chip design, image-sensor design, bioelectronics, micro/nano-fabrication, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), micromachining, neural computation and reconfigurable and adaptive computing. Research interests include low-level analogue, low-power, adaptive and bio-inspired approaches, system-on-chip computing and applications from telecommunications to finance and astronomy. There is also a research focus on integrating CMOS microelectronic technology with sensors and microsystems/MEMS to create smart sensor systems. We also have a strong and growing interest in applications relating to life sciences and medicine, with particular focus on bioelectronics, biophotonics and bio-MEMS. IMNS has laboratory facilities that are unique within the UK, including an advanced silicon and MEMS micro-fabrication capability coupled with substantial design and test resources. The Institute has an excellent reputation for commercialising technology.
