Biography
Born in 1973 and of Swiss-Egyptian nationality, Simon Henein grew up in Cairo. He obtained an engineering degree at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in 1996 and went on to complete his doctorate at the EPFL in 2000. In 2001, he published the book “Conception des guidages flexibles” which has become a reference in precision engineering. He then joined the Centre Suisse d’Electronique et Microtechnique (CSEM), Neuchatel, Switzerland, where he conceived and developed mechanisms for robotic, aerospace, medical and watchmaking applications. He pursued his research career at the Paul Scherrer Institute, Villigen, Switzerland, where he developed instruments for the Swiss Light Source Synchrotron (SLS). Since November 1st, 2012, he is associate professor in microengineering at the EPFL and director of the Micromechanical and horological design laboratory (Instant-Lab). From 2012 till 2020 he has been holder of the Patek Philippe endowed Chair. He directed 6 completed Ph.D. theses, and currently directs 4 additional ongoing Ph.Ds. He participated to the jury of 11 Ph.D. theses as an examiner and 2 as jury president. He is author or co-author of 2 books, 3 book chapters, over 25 peer-reviewed scientific journal articles and over 60 conference articles. He is inventor or co-inventor of more than 35 patents. He has been the Principal Investigator of 24 Research Agreements with industrial partners and 3 Innosuisse Research Agreements and the co-applicant of 3 Innosuisse Research Agreements, 1 SNSF BRIDGE project and 1 INTERREG project. He is strongly involved in teaching with a volume of 12 ECTS credits taught annually and over 200 students. He supervised the Master's theses of 26 students and the semester projects of 60 students. In 2023 he received the "Best teacher award" from the Microengineering Section.Mission
Instant-Lab is located in the EPFL antenna located in Neuchatel, in the Microcity building. Instant-Lab currently consists of a dozen senior scientists, postdoctoral scholars and graduate students. The laboratory’s specialty is the creation of new mechanisms featuring kinematic and technological innovation at the centimetre scale. The scientific approach is inspired from mechanical design in fields such as new and classical horology, robotics and aerospace. Current projects apply to mechanical watchmaking, biomedical instrumentation, and aerospace mechanisms, these fields being quite close, both technologically and in their industrial fabric. Beyond the laboratory’s academic mission to pursue excellence in fundamental research and teaching, the laboratory is also committed to strengthen ties with the Swiss industry and therefore welcomes collaboration with all its industrial partners.Publications
