Smart wearable devices allow for the exchange of information using the human body as a robust communication medium for networking electronic devices. In this photo, a researcher wears devices that allow for the exchange of information using the body to communicate instead of sending a signal through the airwaves that could be hacked. Short Bio: Dr. Sen received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Georgia Tech, Atlanta, USA, in 2011. He is currently an Assistant Professor in School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Purdue University. He has over 5 years of industry research experience at Intel Labs, Qualcomm and Rambus. His research interests include mixed-signal circuits/systems for Internet of Things (IoT), Biomedical and Security. He has authored/co-authored 2 book chapters, over 100 conference and journal papers and has 13 patents granted/pending. In 2018, Dr. Sen was chosen by MIT Technology Review as one of the top 10 Indian Inventors Worldwide under 35 (MIT TR35 India Award), for the invention of using the Human Body as a Wire, which has the potential to transform healthcare, neuroscience and human-computer interaction. Dr. Sen is a recipient of the AFOSR Young Investigator Award 2017, NSF CISE CRII Award 2017, Google Faculty Research Award 2017, Intel Labs Divisional Recognition Award 2014 for industry-wide impact on USB-C type, Intel PhD Fellowship 2010, IEEE Microwave Fellowship 2008, GSRC Margarida Jacome Best Research Award 2007, Best Paper Awards at HOST 2017 and 2018, ICCAD Best-in-Track Award 2014, VTS Honorable Mention Award 2014, RWS Best Paper Award 2008, Intel Labs Quality Award 2012, SRC Inventor Recognition Award 2008 and Young Engineering Fellowship 2005. He serves/has served as an Associate Editor for IEEE Design & Test, Executive Committee member of IEEE Central Indiana Section, ETS and Technical Program Committee member of DAC, CICC, DATE, ISLPED, ICCAD, ITC, VLSI Design, IMSTW and VDAT. Dr. Sen is a Senior Member of IEEE. Research InterestOur group is broadly interested in research of circuits/systems that interfaces between the physical world and digital information. More specifically we focus on fundamental improvements in sensing and communication circuits/systems. This research has applications in the areas of Internet of Things (IoT), Biomedical and Security, among others.
