CERN Accelerating science

Walter Snoeys received the MS and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven in 1987, and from Stanford University in 1992, respectively. Before joining the microelectronics group at CERN in 1994, he did some consulting on integrated sensors, and worked on CMOS technology integration in Mietec, Alcatel, Belgium from 1992 to 1994. Since his Ph.D. work on a monolithic pixel detector for high energy physics, he has been working almost continuously on monolithic sensors, particle detectors and pixel sensor readout circuits.
