Metasurfaces and gap waveguide technology PhD Course
Jan 21-23, 2025
Prof. Eva Rajo Iglesias from University Carlos III of Madrid (Madrid, Spain) visited the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications and the Wavision Research Group at the Politecnico di Torino and taught the PhD Course “Metasurfaces and gap waveguide technology” (insegnamento su invito).
1st IEEE Latin American Conference on Antennas and Propagation
Nov 19-22, 2024
Daniela Godinho from FC.ID/CIÊNCIAS and David Rodriguez-Duarte from POLITO attended the 1st IEEE Latin American Conference on Antennas & Propagation in Cartagena de Indias, Colombia, during the first week of December.
Both organised and chaired a special session entitled “Advancements in Electromagnetic-based Medical Techniques and Devices”, covering topics of interest for 3BAtwin. David Rodriguez-Duarte also presented a poster entitled “Simplified Multi-channel Calibration for Microwave Imaging Systems”, as a result of the work POLITO has been doing towards the development of brain microwave imaging systems.

Kick-Off Meeting of 3BAtwin
Oct 2-3, 2024
Together with FCiências.ID (FC.ID), Faculdade de Ciências da Universidade de Lisboa (CIÊNCIAS-ULisboa), University of Galway (GALWAY) and Politecnico di Torino (POLITO), we are excited to kick-off 3BAtwin GA 101159623, Bone, Brain, Breast and Axillary Medical Microwave Imaging. This is a European Union Twinning Project coordinated by FCiências.ID/CIÊNCIAS-ULISBOA, and funded by the European Union, which aims to capacitate them with the various specific/fine knowledge and tools which will allow to accelerate Medical Microwave Imaging (MMWI) from the research bench to the patient bedside.

European Microwave Conference (EuMC 2024)
Sep 24-26, 2024
In this edition of EuMC, part of the European Microwave Week (EuMW) in Paris(FR), we present the work: Portable Microwave (pMWI) System for Brain Stroke Imaging Using Off-the-Shelf Components. It is a key step in the development of a microwave imaging device for brain stroke monitoring, which will be industrialized and clinically tested as part of the MedWaveImage project. For this work our PhD student Martina Gugliermino is awarded with the Student Grant (EuMC).

Kick-off Meeting of MedWaveImage
July 3, 2024
Healthcare institutions suffer from a considerable undersupply of employees as well as from a lack of sufficient infrastructure and equipment. The project MedWaveImage tackles this growing challenge by transferring cutting-edge technologies from near-by universities to hospitals. The partners focus especially on the potentials of microwave imaging, which can be used to develop portable and cost-effective devices for treating diseases like breast cancer and monitoring brain tissues after stroke. Their newly developed devices will be tested in hospitals with specific medical expertise.

Science is Wonderful 2024
April 25-26, 2024
Science is Wonderful! connects the work of Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions young researchers with schools across the EU, allowing students to engage with them, explore science through interactive activities, and learn about innovations. This year we are happy to be selected and presented Snapshotting the brain. In this experience the public explore the wonders of the brain, and discover how it interacts with electromagnetic waves, allowing doctors to see inside. Also they had fun modeling a toy brain and generating images with your hands. +
