Professor Leon Chua, an EC Marie Curie Fellow at the School of Computing, was invited to talk at an EC Research Day in Prague, together with Prof Peter Higgs, a Nobel Prize winner.
Professor Leon Chua formulated theories behind the memristor, a new electrical component which will in the near future replace current transistor based digital memories.
Professor Peter Higgs was awarded by Nobel Prize in Physics in 2013 for theoretical discovery of a new fundamental particle called Higgs boson, which explains, why some fundamental particles have mass.
