Dhiraj Sinha got his undergraduate degree in electrical engineering from the Institute of Engineering and Technology, University of Lucknow, India and Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Cambridge University, UK. After his post-doctoral work at Cambridge University in the group of Prof. Gehan Amaratunga, he worked as the CTO of Smantenna Ltd, a thin film based antenna startup. This was followed by a brief stint at Oscion, a technology consulting firm.
His research interests are converged towards ultra-small antenna design and biomedical sensing. He is also interested in thermodynamics and electromagnetic field effects in microscopic systems with a few degrees of freedom.
