Curriculum vitae
Albert-M. Schrotz successfully completed his studies in Mechatronics (B.Sc.) and Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Information Technology at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg in March 2019 with a Master of Science (M. Sc.) degree. Since May 2019, he has been a research assistant at the Chair of Technical Electronics in the RFMXIS group. Since February 2021, he has been team leader of the MXIS team, which has been operating as an independent group since July 2022. Since July 2022 he is group leader of the Mixed-Signal-Integrated-Systems (MXIS) group.
