Biography
Constantine Sideris is an Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Southern California (USC). He received the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees with honors from the California Institute of Technology in 2010, 2011, and 2017 respectively. He was a visiting scholar at UC Berkeley’s Wireless Research Center from 2013 to 2014. He was a postdoctoral fellow in the departments of Electrical Engineering and Computing and Mathematical Sciences at Caltech from January 2017 to August 2018.
He was the recipient of an ONR YIP award in 2023, an NSF CAREER award in 2021, an AFOSR YIP award in 2020, an AFOSR DURIP award in 2021, the Caltech Leadership Award in 2017, and an NSF graduate research fellowship in 2010. Dr. Sideris’s research is highly interdisciplinary and bridges the fields of bioengineering, medicine, applied mathematics and computation with electrical engineering and physics.
Dr. Sideris's research interests include analog/RF integrated circuits, photonic integrated circuits, and computational electromagnetics for biomedical and biosensing applications and wireless communications. His current interests in biomedical devices include portable Point-of-Care in-vitro biosensors, wearable devices for real-time monitoring and analysis of biological signals, ingestible “smart” pills, and implantable devices. His current interests in computational electromagnetics include developing fast algorithms for simulating RF and nanophotonic devices and coupling them with efficient optimization algorithms to achieve the automated design of new, high-performance electromagnetic devices.
