About

Laura Steren is a leading experimental physicist whose research sits at the intersection of flexible electronics and magnetic field sensing. Her most-cited work, the 2019 paper "Highly compliant planar Hall effect sensor with sub 200 nT sensitivity," has garnered 84 citations and represents a breakthrough in mechanically reshapeable sensor technology. By engineering planar Hall effect sensors that maintain exceptional sensitivity—below 200 nanotesla—while remaining highly flexible, Steren has opened new possibilities for soft robotics, virtual and augmented reality interfaces, and point-of-care diagnostics. Her contributions address a critical challenge: creating robust, compliant magnetic sensors that can be integrated into wearable and deformable devices without sacrificing performance. This work has positioned her as a key figure in the growing field of flexible magnetoelectronics, where her innovations enable real-time magnetic field detection in unconventional, body-conforming formats. Steren’s research continues to push the boundaries of how magnetic sensors can be seamlessly embedded into next-generation interactive and biomedical technologies, making her a vital voice for students and researchers exploring the future of adaptive, human-centric electronics.
