Clément Hébert

Clément Hébert obtained a PhD from Grenoble Alpes University in 2012 on the development of diamond microelectrode arrays for electrophysiology in the Semiconductor team at Grand Gap at the Néel Institute. He then did a postdoc at CEA LIST in Saclay in the diamond sensor team, in partnership with ESIEE Paris and the Vision Institute, on the optimization of diamond microelectrodes and their integration into retinal and epicortical implants.

In 2015, he joined Professor Garrido's team in Barcelona with Marie Curie funding to develop and integrate 2D technologies, graphene (transistors and electrodes) and MoS2 (transistors) into flexible neural implants. In 2018, he obtained ATIP/avenir funding to establish his “Wireless Neural Implants” team, which is developing neural implants that can be interfaced with ultrasound probes. In 2019, he was appointed as a senior researcher at INSERM and joined the Grenoble Institute of Neurosciences (GIN) in 2020.

Since 2021, his team has been collaborating with the teams of Homaira Nawabi and Stéphane Belin on the use of wireless implants for the regeneration and reformation of damaged neural circuits.
