Mohamed Bahri received his M.Sc. degree in microelectronics and nanotechnology in 2016 from the University of Sousse, Higher Institute of Applied Sciences and Technology, Tunisia. In 2017 and 2018, he was awarded the Tunisian alternance scholarship twice, along with the DAAD scholarship in 2018, to pursue his research work at the Institute of Analytical Sciences (ISA Lyon, France) and Technische Universität Chemnitz (Chemnitz_Germany). Then obtained his Ph.D. degree in optical engineering in 2022 from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS), Chongqing Institute of Green and Intelligent Technology (CIGIT), China. In 2022, he joined the Tsinghua University-Shenzhen International Graduate School in China as a postdoctoral fellow, where he conducted experimental research focused on detecting biomarkers for lung cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Currently, Dr. Bahri is a Research Assistant Professor at CenBRAIN Neurotech Center of Excellence.

Mohamed Bahri's research area focuses on 2D materials synthesis and adoption for biosensing and biomedical applications. He achieved results on electrochemical monitoring of TNF-α and DNA target based on Si3N4 substrate and Laser Induced Graphene electrode in human saliva and buffer solution, respectively. In addition, he has experience in MEMS microfabrication, though he developed various DNA biosensing platforms based on FET system made of CVD grown graphene and Tungsten Disulfide within an extremely low LOD down to attomole concentration. During his postdoctoral, his project revolves around the development of a high-performance micro-biosensor for a rapid, stable, and trustworthy sensing platform for specific and ultrasensitive detection of lung cancer biomarkers. With such an anticipated biosensing tool, decisions and classifying patients to whom healthy and bearing lung cancer disease will be easily made at an early stage, which could considerably improve the survival rates.
