Martyn Boutelle's Biography

Martyn Boutelle, Professor of Biomedical Sensors Engineering, Imperial College London

Martyn Boutelle is Professor of Biomedical Sensors Engineering in the Department of Bioengineering, Imperial College London, and Consul for the Faculty of Engineering. His multidisciplinary research group is comprises, bioengineers, scientists, and clinicians. He develops novel analytical science methods using microfluidics, electrochemical sensors / biosensors, and wireless electronics to make portable, wearable monitoring devices. He then uses these in a program of clinical science research focusing on the acute traumatic brain injury, kidney transplantation as well as neonatal and athlete monitoring. The same measurement techniques are used in patients and in experimental models allowing genuine translational research.

Martyn is immediate past president of the International Society for Monitoring Molecules in Neuroscience, and a founder of the COSBID organization for studying acute human brain injury. He published > 190 papers, chapters and patents. He obtained a BSc and PhD in Chemistry from Imperial College and worked as an EP Abraham Research Fellow in the University of Oxford.
