Congratulations, Dr. Zhou! Xiahan successfully defended his thesis on Magnetoresistive Biosensors. Check out some of his work here, here, and here. It was our group’s first “virtual” Zoom defense. Xiahan will start at Qualcomm soon.

Congratulations, Matthew for winning the ECE undergraduate research award! Matthew is an amazingly hard worker and has been very productive in his time working with the BioEE group. We will miss him! Matthew will join the CMU Ph.D. program in the fall.
Alex’s paper titled “Point‐of‐Care Smartphone‐based Electrochemical Biosensing” was among the top 10% most downloaded papers in the Electroanalysis journal last year! This article is a great summary of point-of-care mobile Health (mHealth) devices. Check it out!
Somok successfully defended his thesis titled, “Power-Efficiency Enhancement Techniques for Precision Sensing Circuits and Short-range Transmitters.” We celebrated his achievements with a “chip cake!” (If you are unfamiliar with this tradition, check out this video.) Also, check out some of Somok’s chips here.

Chih-Cheng (Iric) successfully defended his thesis titled, “Magnetoresistive Devices for Biosensing Applications” yesterday. We celebrated his achievements with a “chip cake”! (If you are unfamiliar with this tradition, check out this video.)

Aditi won the Best Pitch Award at the Center for Wearable Systems (CWS) Symposia for her work on “An Ultra-low Power Temperature Sensor for Glaucoma Medication Adherence.”

Congratulations, Bassem for winning Best Poster Award at BioCAS 2019! Check out Bassem’s paper on modeling bioimpedance here.

Haowei successfully defended his thesis titled, “Ultra-low-power sensors and receivers for IoT applications” this morning. We celebrated his achievements with a “chip cake”! (If you are unfamiliar with this tradition, check out this video.) Haowei will join Apple.

Somok presented his work at the IEEE Custom Integrated Circuits Conference (CICC) on “A 107 μW MedRadio Injection-Locked Clock Multiplier with a CTAT-biased 126 ppm/°C Ring Oscillator.” Read more about it here.
Haowei also presented his work on a “A 2-in-1 Temperature and Humidity Sensor Achieving 62 fJ·K2 and 0.83 pJ·(%RH)2.” Read more about it here.
