Dr. Dwight Angelo Bruzon

Dwight Angelo Bruzon obtained his Bachelor and Master’s degrees in chemistry, and PhD in Materials Science and Engineering at the University of the Philippines Diliman. He was part of the Surface Science and Laser Spectroscopy Laboratory under Dr. Imee Su Martinez at the Institute of Chemistry and the Sync.Bio.Optics Laboratory under Dr. Giovanni Tapang at the National Institute of Physics. His research focused on the electrochemical analysis of ionic liquids for carbon capture applications. He designed and fabricated custom electrochemical instrumentation interfaced in high-vacuum systems for in-situ measurements. He also worked on assessing the photo-reactivity of anthracene-functionalized polymers and their application in light-gated organic electronics. He was involved in instrumentation research and engineering at the National Institute of Physics, where he worked on hardware embedded systems such as modular and versatile sensor platforms for metrology, automated microfluidic devices, sensing and control systems for microfluidic diagnostics and autonomous environmental monitoring. He also served as Chief Executive Officer of the start-up company making.technology from 2023 to 2024, bringing applied hardware embedded systems to the market. He is currently a Postdoctoral Researcher at IMDEA Nanociencia in Madrid, Spain, in the Systems Chemistry Laboratory led by Prof. Thomas Hermans. His current research focuses on electrochemically-driven intelligent dynamic systems for computing applications.
