About

Dr. Svetlana A. Gerasimova is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of neuromorphic engineering and biohybrid systems, whose work is redefining the boundaries between living neural networks and artificial circuitry. Her primary research areas include neurohybrid memristive systems, biosensors, neuroprosthetics, and the emerging paradigm of “Neuropunk”—a cyberpunk-inspired revolution in cognitive hacking. Her most influential contribution, the 2020 paper “Neurohybrid Memristive CMOS-Integrated Systems for Biosensors and Neuroprosthetics” (183 citations), introduces a visionary concept: a chip that integrates living neural networks cultivated in microfluidic environments with metal-oxide memristive devices and mixed-signal CMOS layers. This work lays the foundation for adaptive, brain-like interfaces that could transform neuroprosthetics and real-time biosensing. In her more recent 2022 paper, “Neuropunk Revolution. Hacking Cognitive Systems towards Cyborgs 3.0” (3 citations), she boldly charts a new direction that merges neuromorphic technologies—including bio-plausible simulations and brain-computer interfaces—with cultural and philosophical themes, proposing a future where cognitive systems are hacked for enhanced human-machine symbiosis. Dr. Gerasimova’s work is notable for its interdisciplinary boldness, bridging materials science, neuroscience, and speculative design, and her high-impact 2020 paper has already shaped discussions in neuromorphic computing and bioelectronics.
