About
Benyamin Davaji joined Northeastern Engineering in January 2022 as an assistant professor in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department. He received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Marquette University in 2016, and held a post-doctoral associate position in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Cornell University. His main research interests include integrated microsystems emphasizing sensing and computation using mechanical waves, acoustic/ultrasound transducers, bio-interfaces, microcalorimetry, and implementing data-guided methods for system design, nanofabrication, and semiconductor manufacturing.
