About

Tania Roy is a leading researcher in the field of emerging nanoelectronics, with a primary focus on two-dimensional (2D) materials and their applications in neuromorphic computing and bio-inspired sensors. Her major contributions include pioneering the development of optoelectronic synapses using monolayer MoS₂ field-effect transistors, which integrate optical sensing and memory functions—a crucial step toward efficient artificial vision systems for autonomous robotics. This work has garnered over 110 citations. She also demonstrated the first artificial nociceptor (pain-sensing neuron) using a single MoS₂-based threshold switching memristor, achieving volatile resistance switching that mimics biological pain responses. This breakthrough, cited over 80 times, offers a compact, low-power solution for smart robotics and prosthetics. Roy’s work bridges fundamental materials science with practical device engineering, earning recognition for advancing bio-realistic hardware. Her research is highly influential in the growing field of 2D-material-based neuromorphic computing, with her papers serving as key references for engineers and scientists developing next-generation intelligent systems.
