Mohammad Alibakhshikenari (https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6074-8019) (Member, IEEE) was born in Iran, in 1988. He received the Ph.D. degree (Hons.) in electronic engineering from the University of Rome Tor Vergata, Italy, in February 2020. In 2018 for eight months, he was working with the Antenna System Division, Department of Electrical Engineering, Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden, as a Ph.D. Visiting Researcher. As well as, his training during the Ph.D. included a research stage in the Swedish company Gap Waves AB that is developing components in a technology. He is currently working as a Postdoctoral Grant Holder Researcher with the Electronic Engineering Department of the University of Rome "Tor Vergata", Italy. During his Ph.D. research period, he has participated in 14 international IEEE conferences over the world, where he has presented 20 articles mostly in oral presentations. During his Ph.D. study, he was winner of 13 grants for participating in the European Doctoral Schools on Antennas and Metamaterials organized by several European Universities and European School of Antennas (ESoA). He acts as a referee in several high reputed journals and IEEE international conferences. His research interests include antennas and wave-propagations, phased antenna arrays, metamaterials and metasurfaces, synthetic aperture radars (SAR), multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, waveguide slotted antenna arrays, substrate integrated waveguides (SIWs), impedance matching networks, on-chip antennas, microwave components, millimeter-waves and terahertz integrated circuits, and electromagnetic systems. The above research lines have produced more than 90 publications on refereed-international journals, presentations within international-conferences, and book chapters with a total number of the citations more than 1100, H-index of 23, and I10-indext of 40 reported by the Google Scholar Citation. Dr. Alibakhshikenari was two recipients of the 47th and 48th European Microwave Conference (EuMC) Young Engineer Prize, in 2017, Nuremberg, Germany, and in 2018, Madrid, Spain, where he has presented his articles. He gave an Invited Lecture entitled Metamaterial Applications to Antenna Systems at the Department of Information and Telecommunication Engineering of the Incheon National University, Incheon, South Korea, which was in conjunction with the 8th Asia-Pacific Conference on Antennas and Propagation (APCAP 2019), where he was the Chair of the Metamaterial session as well. He is serving as a Editorial Board Members for "International Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering (IJECE)", Guest Editor for a special issue entitled "Millimeter-wave and Terahertz Applications of Metamaterials" in "Applied Sciences". In April 2020, his article entitled "High-Gain Metasurface in Polyimide On-Chip Antenna Based on CRLH-TL for Sub Terahertz Integrated Circuits" published in "Scientific Reports" was awarded as best month paper at the University of Bradford, U.K.
