DESCRIPTION:Dr. Ali Ameri\nAbstract\nThanks to advances in integrated circ
 uit technology\, operating at mm-wave and sub-THz frequencies has become m
 ore accessible than ever. As a result\, we are witnessing the emergence of
  circuits and systems that leverage high-frequency electromagnetic fields 
 and waves not only for their traditional roles in communication and radar\
 , but also for emerging applications in sensing and imaging.\nIn this talk
 \, I will present single-pixel and multi-pixel biosensing and imaging plat
 forms that use resonator-based pixels. These pixels are compact and highly
  sensitive to perturbations of their local electromagnetic near-fields\, i
 nduced by changes in the permittivity of biological samples. As a result\,
  single-cell-level sensitivity can be achieved in sensing\, and sub-wavele
 ngth (~λ/30) resolution in imaging. When integrated with microfabricated 
 fluidic channels and packaging structures\, these systems become powerful 
 tools for detecting\, characterizing\, and analyzing cells and tissues\, w
 ith permittivity serving as a natural contrast agent. The proposed technol
 ogies hold significant promise for real-time\, cost-effective\, and non-in
 vasive diagnostic imaging.\n\nBiography\nAli Ameri received his bachelor
 ’s and master’s degrees in electrical engineering from the University 
 of Tehran and McGill University\, respectively. He then worked at Granite 
 SemiCom\, an IP company based in Toronto\, where he focused on hybrid phas
 e-locked loops and industrial sensor interfaces. After four years in indus
 try\, he joined the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Scie
 nces at UC Berkeley\, where he completed his Ph.D. and then pursued postdo
 ctoral training. He is currently a research scientist at Bosch USA\, where
  he works on high-precision analog/mixed-signal circuits for consumer elec
 tronics. His research interests include integrated circuits for communicat
 ion\, sensing\, and imaging. He is also the recipient of the Principal’s
  Graduate Fellowship at McGill University and the H2H8 award at UC Berkele
 y.\n
