General
Damijan Miklavcic is a tenured professor at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, University of Ljubljana. He is the world-leading expert in the field of electroporation. In the past 30 years, he contributed to a better understanding of electroporation on membrane, cell and tissue level. He has been involved in basic research demonstrating on preclinical level improved efficacy of selected cancer drugs by electroporation, developing electrodes and devices, and providing numerical modelling towards treatment planning. He was involved in development of irreversible electroporation for cardiac ablation (i.e. Pulsed Field Ablation), which holds great promise and lends itself as a game changer in cardiac electrophysiology. He is also developing DNA delivery to cells by electroporation for cell and gene-based therapies. According to Google scholar, his works received 36.433 citations, h-index 102.
