Twenty-two undergraduate students from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC), Chengdu, are currently visiting the CEMSE Division as part of one week Winter Camp at KAUST.

Gaurav's work in collaboration with the University of Colorado-Boulder has been accepted for publication in Materials Today Energy Journal (Elsevier).

Fahad's paper ' 3D printed disposable wireless sensor with integrated microelectronics for large area environmental monitoring.' is on the KAUST Discovery page.

3D-printed, disposable sensors capable of detecting noxious gases and changes in temperature and humidity could revolutionize environmental monitoring.

Floating paper cubes containing low-cost, inkjet printed electronic sensors can wirelessly monitor floods in real time.

Fahad's work on a 3D-printed fully integrated wireless sensor node has been accepted in Advanced Materials Technologies by Wiley-VCH.

This year IEEE IMS, our premium conference, is starting a Three Minute Thesis (3MT(R)) contest.

​Prof. Shamim gave a talk in the NSF conference and discussed how for the Internet of Things (IOT), billions of sensors with wireless capabilities can be placed on objects or dispersed in the environment so that they can sense parameters of interest and communicate the data to other objects for smart decisions making.

Prof. Shamim and B. Cook, organized a joint Workshop titled “Additive Manufacturing: Creating Bigger, Faster, and Smarter Electronics, in Winter Enrichment program-2017 in KAUST.

Fahad has successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis entitled, "Low-Cost Inkjet-Printed Wireless Sensor Nodes for Environmental and Health Monitoring Applications."

Farhan has successfully defended his Ph.D. thesis entitled, "Theory and Design of Tunable and Reconfigurable Microwave Passive Components on Partially Magnetized Ferrite Substrate."

Ph.D. student Muhammad Akram Karimimi from the research team of Atif Shamim, Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering at KAUST and Director of IMPACT Laboratory, was one of the finalists in the Student Paper Competition at the International Microwave Symposium held in San Francisco, California, in May 2016.

KAUST is ranked #1 for Citations per Faculty in the QS World University Rankings.

Muhammad Fahad Farooqui has won the best paper award in IEEE Middle East Conference on Antennas and Propagation (MECAP), 2016 for his work on wireless Smart Bandage for health care applications.

Professor Shamim's new cutting edge, flexible and low-cost technology to monitor chronic wounds recently put CEMSE on the map of health care system research. His scientific paper " Low-Cost Inkjet Printed Smart Bandage for Wireless Monitoring of Chronic Wounds " appeared on Nature Scientific Reports and won IEEE MECAP'16 - Middle East Conference on Antennas and Propagation - Best Paper Award, in Beirut, last September.
