Two ESL students win awards at international electromagnetics symposium

Two graduate students from The Ohio State University's ElectroScience Laboratory earned high honors at the recent International Applied Computational Electromagnetics Society (ACES) Symposium.

Students Connor Jenkins and Keren Zhu won second and third place, respectively, in the Student Paper Competition.

Second Place Honors:

C. Jenkins and A. Kiourti, "Low-Loss Wireless Implant Telemetry Using Magnetoinductive Waveguides," International Applied Computational Electromagnetics Society (ACES) Symposium, Monterey, CA, Mar. 26-30, 2023.

Third Place Honors:

K. Zhu and A. Kiourti, "Noise Coil for Improving Sensitivity in a Fully Passive Bio-Magnetic Signal Detection System," International Applied Computational Electromagnetics Society (ACES) Symposium, Monterey, CA, Mar. 26-30, 2023.

Both students are advised by Professor Asimina Kiourti and are part of the Wearable and Implantable Technologies (WIT) Group. The research team is carrying out interdisciplinary research at the intersection of electromagnetics, sensors, materials and medicine. The group is developing wearables and implants that outperform the state-of-the-art in terms of seamlessness, capabilities and performance.

The International Applied Computational Electromagnetics Society (ACES) Symposium, held March 26-30, 2023 in Monterey, California, serves as a forum for developers, analysts, and users of computational techniques applied to electromagnetic field problems for all frequency ranges. The symposium includes technical invited plenary and regular presentations, software tutorials, vendor booths and short courses.
