Càndid Reig received the B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in Physics from the University of Valencia, Valencia, Spain, in 1994, 1995, and 2000, respectively. In 1997, he was with Radiaciones y Microondas S.A., Madrid, Spain. He joined the Department of Applied Physics, University of Valencia, where he developed his doctoral thesis. In 2001, he was an Assistant Professor at the University Miguel Hernández, Elche, Spain. In 2002, he was an Assistant Professor with the University of Valencia and a Post-Doctoral Fellow with INESC-MN, Lisbon, Portugal, working on sensor integration. He is, since 2007, an Associate Professor with the Department of Electronic Engineering, University of Valencia, where he teaches and does research. His current research interests include the development of CMOS sensors (mainly magnetic and vision) and their integration at the integrated circuit level. He also served as an external consultant for Analog Devices in 2013 and 2015, and ams OSRAM in 2024 and 2025.

He has been a researcher and principal investigator in different national and international scientific research projects. He has advised three Ph.D. students on these topics. He has published about 50 JCR journal papers, contributed more than 50 works to conferences, edited a book, and co-authored six book chapters. Dr. Reig actively participates in periodic international conference program committees, in research journals’ editorial boards, and acts as a referee for different research journals. He was the General Co-Chair of the IEEE Sensors Conference (2014, Valencia) and the Chair of the Spanish Chapter of the IEEE Sensors Council (from 2015 to 2020). He was a co-recipient of the IETE-J C Bose Memorial Award in 2011 and the Magnetic Society of Japan Best Publication Award in 2014.

He is actually the Director of the PERTE Chip Chair of the University of Valencia, focused on advanced materials and integrated circuits. Within this framework, he is also the Co-Director of the Multinational Master of Microelectronics, with Mayte Bacete, President of VaSiC, and supported by MaxLinear, Analog Devices, Bosch, and ams OSRAM.
