Rate My Professor Marina Cole

Cole's research specializations encompass resonant sensors based on piezoelectric materials and instrumentation, smart CMOS gas sensors, surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors for liquid applications, integrated silicon-based sensors, analogue, digital, and mixed-signal application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) devices, smart sensors, actuators, and microsystems. She has authored over 30 technical papers in scientific journals, edited books, and international conferences, with her work accumulating over 1,468 citations on Google Scholar. Key publications include 'Miniature taste sensing system based on dual SH-SAW resonator device' (2004, cited by 130), 'Combined electronic nose and tongue as a flavour sensing system' (2011, cited by 88), 'Particle Sensor using Solidly Mounted Resonators' (2016, cited by 38), 'Real-Time Thermal Modulation of High Bandwidth MOX Gas Sensors' (2019), and 'Rapid and Selective Detection of Linalool Using Solidly Mounted Resonators for Plant Health Monitoring' (2024). Her research has practical applications in areas such as plant health monitoring, wearable electronic noses for urinary incontinence detection, and pest detection using solidly mounted resonators. Cole has secured EPSRC funding for projects including novel implementation techniques for wavelet-based broadband signal detection systems. She served on the technical program committee for the IEEE Sensors conference from 2002 to 2006 and reviews for Sensors & Actuators and IEEE Sensors Journal.
