In addition, he is a part of the BrainGate team at Brown University , headed by Prof. John Donoghue , that researches neural prosthetics for humans with paralysis. University of Oxford , UK, in 2005. As his doctoral thesis, he designed very high data-rate ultrawideband systems for indoor wireless communications. From 2005 to 2007, he was a Research Fellow at the University of Oxford, where he was a member of the Communications Research Group at the Deparment of Engineering Science . During this time, he also held a Research Fellowship in Science at Wolfson College , Oxford, where he chaired the Research Fellows Society (2006-07). He developed signal processing techniques for multi-gigabit wireless communications as part of his postdoctoral research.
Ultra-Wideband Antennas and Propagation for Communications, Radar and Imaging (UK: Wiley, 2006). He was the Lead Guest Editor of the IET Microwaves Antennas and Propagation special issue on "Antenna systems and propagation for future wireless communications " (Dec. 2007). He is also an Editor of the International Journal of Ultra Wideband Communications and Systems . In addition, he has published in excess of 70 research papers in refereed journals and conferences.
He routinely serves on the organizing and technical program committees of various international conferences. He also consults for the industry and government on a variety of areas in signal processing, communications and biomedical engineering. He received the Association for Computing Machinery Recognition of Service Award (2000), the Best Paper Award in the ARMMS RF & Microwave Conference (Steventon, UK, 2006), and the ESU Lindemann Science Fellowship (2007).Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and a Member of the Society for Neuroscience .
