Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava is is one of the leading academic workplaces in Slovakia and is recognized at the European and international level. STU is a member of several Centres of excellence and solves scientific research projects at the national as well as international level. STUs Laboratory of Medical and Applied Electronics is one of the main research laboratories in Slovakia dedicated to improving health care services by research in physiological monitoring, hardware processing, data evaluation and processing. We are developing microprocessor and sensors systems for accurate measuring of biometric quantities such as ECG, EMG, EEG, PPG, respiratory rate and more. Thanks to our modular systems we can rapidly develop precise PCBs and control systems. We also focus on data transfer via wireless networks, industrial buses, internet, implementation of application for smartphones that control wireless units and transfer data to servers, beside preparation of server solutions for receiving and processing data. In addition, we have a strong background and competences in AI/machine learning, software engineering and development, including design, coding in different languages (java, C++, C#, pascal, python..), databases (Oracle, MySQL PostrgreSQL, MS SQL..), data analysis, evaluation or predictions by different ML algorithms (CNN, SVM..), using of the different application servers (Jboss /WildFly, WebSphere, MS IIS), integration platforms (Software AG WebMethods, IBM MQ, Apache ServiceMix), testing tools (Selenium) and application platforms (Web, iOS, Android). STU develops the PPG multisensor prototypes, and everything necessary for hardware and software design. The team includes a group dedicated to the implementation of neural networks.

His research interests include software engineering, machine learning systems, cognitive functions, adaptive learning, and applied informatics at all. He participated in more than 25 R&D projects.

Michal Mician

Michal obtained his PhD. degree in 2019 at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava. He received the “STU Rector’s Prize” for excellent performance of study obligations throughout the studies of Doctoral Study Programme Electronics and Photonics.

Despite his young age (33), he is the Head of the organic and medical electronics department at FEI STU, which consists of 16 researchers engaged in research on organic and flexible electronic devices (8), as well as the development of telemedicine devices (8). He has extensive experience in the management of national and international projects. Michal Micjan has devoted his entire working life to research in the field of organic electronics, telemedicine, and project management of research and development projects (PRINCE2 Practitioner certificate). His scientific interests are globally oriented to the project implementation and to the transfer research results into the commercial sphere.

Michal is also the author or co-author more than 100 publications (26 Scopus) of which are 11 in the Current Content connect database (CC) of Web of Science with numbers of citations (more than 180). He is co-editor of 2 scientific proceedings and co-author of one chapter in the book. Michal is also inventor of 8 patents (4 accepted and 4 in proceedings) and 18 registered utility models. For his previous work at STU in the field of organic electronics and telemedicine, he received the STU Young Scientist award for 2023.

Peter Cuninka

Peter received his PhD. in 2020 in Cybernetics at the Faculty of Materials Science and Technology of the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava, based in Trnava. Since the completion of his engineering studies, he has been involved in the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme and subsequently the EIT scheme within the university. He coordinated the H2020 project in the Teaming call as a member responsible for the organizational and financial aspects of the project. In 2017, when STU joined the EIT Raw Materials, he was responsible for the activities of the university from the position of Project Manager. Since 2018, he has been Head of International Projects and International Relations at the Faculty of Materials Science and Technology, where he implemented several international projects not only from the EIT scheme (Raw Materials as well as Manufacturing) at that time. In 2021, he started working partly for the EIT Manufacturing RIS HUB Slovakia and since 2022 he has been appointed as the Director of the university Project Centre (central office), which also coordinates EIT Manufacturing RIS HUB. Since January 2024 he is the Director of the Centre for European Projects, Cooperation with Practice, Innovation and Technology Transfer STU. He continues to be actively involved in the development of project proposals and the search for collaborations for the development of STU.
