András graduated from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Informatics at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, specialised in embedded systems.

His PhD topic focuses on exploiting CMOS single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) line sensors in biomedical applications. He investigates how advanced features of SPAD line sensors can improve various spectroscopic techniques (e.g. time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, Raman-spectroscopy), and how such sensors can facilitate the combination of different modalities resulting in more efficient multi-modal detection. The result will be providing more detailed information on the biological and chemical structures and processes under investigation.
