Dr. Valente is an Assistant Professor in Electrical Engineering at Toronto Metropolitan University, Toronto, Canada. He received the Ph.D. degree in electronic and electrical engineering from University College London (UCL), U.K., in 2011. From 2011 to 2017 he held Research Associate positions in the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering at UCL, during which, in 2015, he also joined Tetrivis LTD, UK, as an IC design engineer. In 2017, Dr. Valente was a Visiting Scholar at the Nano Lab, Tufts University, Medford, USA. In 2018 he joined the Department of Microelectronics at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands as Faculty Research Fellow in Bioelectronics.
Dr. Valente’s research focuses on the design of integrated CMOS/MEMS sensor systems for implantable and injectable wireless sensor networks, with medical applications including wireless health monitoring, diagnostics and closed-loop therapy. He has authored and co-authored more than 40 peer-reviewed publications and holds 1 patent.
Dr. Valente is an Associate Editor of the IEEE Canadian Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering, a member of the Technical Committee of the IEEE Conference on Biomedical Circuits and Systems (BioCAS) and the Workshop on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems (Hilton Head). He currently serves on the Organizing Committee of the 2025 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS) in London, UK and the 2025 IEEE SENSORS Conference in Vancouver, Canada, and as Track Chair for the 2025 IEEE NEWCAS conference. He also served on the Organizing Committee of the 2023 IEEE BioCAS conference in Toronto, Canada, as Track Chair for the 2019 IEEE Asia Pacific Conference on Circuits and Systems (APCCAS), Bangkok, Thailand and as a member of the 2019 IEEE ICECS Technical Program Committee. Dr. Valente is a Senior Member of the IEEE.
