BIOGRAPHY
After receiving a Master's degree in Computer Science from the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL, Switzerland) in 2006, Amanda Prorok spent two years in Japan, where she first worked at the Advanced R&D Center of Mitsubishi Electric in Amagasaki, and subsequently joined the Science & Technology Office at the Embassy of Switzerland in Tokyo.
Currently, she is working on her PhD thesis under the supervision of Prof. Alcherio Martinoli, and is expected to finish in 2012.
