The antenna laboratory provides capabilities of far field and near field antenna pattern and scattering tests. Automatic and manual measurements in the frequency range of 0.1GHz – 20GHz and up could be routinely performed. Near-field scanners with calibrated field probes enable extracting all field components including the phase. Available equipment includes an Agilent Performance Network […] Read More >

Research Interest Nano-chemical processes for Microelectronics and integration of biological material on chip for acute toxicity detection Nano-chemistry for electronics applications- Physical and electrical characterization of electronic devices for CMOS technologies made by various chemical techniques such as self assembled monolayers and surface catalyzed auto catalytic electrochemical processes.   The research involves studying of the […] Read More >

My interest lies in understanding how fungal development is regulated at the cellular and molecular levels and how it reflects on the interaction of fungi with other organisms, particularly plants. Current projects are focused on analysis of fungal apoptosis and the role that it plays in disease development, basic mechanisms underlying pathogenicity of necrotrophic fungi, […] Read More >

Research topic: Active sensing, sensory perception and cognition from the field through the lab and into the brain. I use the echolocating bat – a “champion” in active sensing to study these behaviors. Research methods: Behavior using highly developed technologies including ultrasonic microphone arrays, mini-cameras and mini-GPS devices. MRI to study brain anatomy and neural correlates of […] Read More >
