Volker Nock is a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering whose work advances New Zealand’s capability in micro‑ and nanosystems, microfluidics, and Lab‑on‑a‑Chip technologies. His research enables new ways to study biomolecular interactions in plants and animals, supporting innovations in disease detection, biocontrol, and environmental resilience.
A Rutherford Discovery Fellow and long‑standing Principal Investigator with the MacDiarmid Institute and the Biomolecular Interaction Centre, he has led national research programmes in reconfigurable systems and biosecurity innovation. His group’s technologies contribute to improved understanding of biological function and the development of next‑generation diagnostic and sensing platforms.
