Whether you are a prospective student, a potential collaborator, or just curious about the work — we would like to hear from you.
The best way to reach us is by email. When reaching out about joining the lab or collaborating, please include a brief statement of your interests and any relevant background — a CV or transcript helps but is not required for initial enquiries.

We actively involve undergraduate students in real research — not busywork. Projects in our lab are scoped so that a motivated undergraduate can contribute meaningfully and, in many cases, become a co-author on a conference or journal paper. We offer independent study credits and research assistant positions. No prior lab experience required; we will train you. A genuine curiosity about wireless systems, photonics, or biomedical devices is all we ask.
Open · RollingIf you are enrolled in or considering SUNY Poly's graduate program and want a thesis or project advisor whose work spans nanophotonics, wireless bioelectronics, and emerging communication systems, reach out. We are happy to discuss thesis topics aligned with your background and interests.
Open · By DiscussionWe are actively seeking collaborations with faculty and research groups at PhD-granting institutions — particularly in the Northeast (RPI, Syracuse, Cornell, Buffalo, UMass). If you have doctoral students whose work overlaps with ours and are open to co-advising or joint projects, we would like to connect. We can offer complementary expertise, shared publications, and access to our experimental infrastructure.
Enquire AnytimeSUNY Poly's location in the heart of New York's semiconductor and photonics corridor makes us a natural partner for industry-facing applied research. If you are working on challenges related to nano-scale wireless systems, implantable device communication, or optical sensing and are looking for an academic collaborator, reach out.
Open to DiscussionWhen emailing, use the subject line "[UG Research / MS Thesis / Collaboration] — [Your Name]". We aim to reply within one week.
