Reza Aminzadeh
Reza Aminzadeh received the M.Sc. degree in Electrical Engineering from Sharif University of Technology, Iran, in 2014 and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from Ghent University, Belgium, in 2020. Since 2015, he is with the Department of Information Technology (INTEC), Ghent University, Belgium, where, his research is mainly focused on antennas and propagation for body area networks as well as characterization of human exposure to radio-frequency electromagnetic fields. From 2012 to 2014, he was a researcher in the Computational Electromagnetics lab at Sharif University of Technology, where, he conducted research on numerical and experimental assessment of millimeter-wave reflectometry for detection of skin cancer. Reza Aminzadeh was served as member of the technical program committee for the 14th, 15th and 17th National Iranian Student Conference on Electrical Engineering (ISCEE) during 2011-2014. He is the author or co-author of more than 30 peer-reviewed scientific journals and conference papers in bioelectromagnetics.
Reza Aminzadeh was the recipient of the third Best Platform Presentation and Scientific Paper Award in BioEM2018, the Joint Meeting of The Bioelectromagnetics Society (BEMS) and the European BioElectromagnetics Association (EBEA).
His research interests include numerical and experimental dosimetry, measurement and theoretical modeling of dielectric properties of biological tissues, development of tissue-equivalent phantoms for mm-wave band including the 5G technology and on/in body radio wave propagation.
