Education


1989-1994 Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Advisor: Prof. Khalil Najafi

Dissertation: An Integrated Telemetric Multi-Channel Sieve Electrode for Nerve Regeneration Applications

The purpose of the thesis is to develop a system to have direct access to the nervous system by recording electrical discharges of the individual axons of the peripheral nervous system. The system is composed of three main parts: a silicon micromachined sieve electrode, on-chip electronics and a transdermal link. The electrode has a number of holes (as small as 1mm in diameter) for deliberately severed nerves to regenerate through, and also activated iridium recording/stimulating sites around the through-holes. Any two of these sites can be selected by a user to record activity simultaneously. The recorded signals are then amplified, multiplexed, digitized and decoded by the on-chip electronics designed in a 3-µm CMOS process. These decoded signals are then sent to the outside world using an inductively coupled RF telemetry link. The link is also used to send power and channel selection data to the on-chip electronics.
