DESCRIPTION:Recent advancements in nanotechnologies and smart materials ha
 ve prompted the creation of a new class of devices that compared to conven
 tional CMOS transistors\, are capable of achieving ‘more’ functionalit
 ies (e.g. multi-bit operation) for ‘less’ energy/space. The ability of
  memristors to act as electrically tuneable multi-level\, non-volatile res
 istive loads\, combined with their inherently scaling-friendly\, low power
  and back-end integrable fabrication processes has rendered them a highly 
 promising candidate for use in emerging memory technologies. Nonetheless\,
  memristive technologies have much more to offer\; making the rich landsca
 pe of modern electronics design even more diverse. During this talk\, I wi
 ll present some examples from my group’s work on how memristive technolo
 gies can be exploited in several practical applications from neuromorphic 
 systems to charge-based computing and even enabling bioelectronics medicin
 es.
