Flavius Pop

Flavius Pop is an Assistant Research Professor in the Electrical and Computer Engineering department at Northeastern University. His research focuses on piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers (PMUTs), implantable medical devices, and acoustic communication systems. He specializes in developing innovative solutions for intrabody networks, underwater acoustics, and energy-efficient biomedical electronics.

Key research areas include ultrasonic transducer design, MEMS-based sensor systems, and real-time monitoring of implanted devices. His work integrates acoustic signal processing, device miniaturization, and biomedical applications to advance healthcare technologies and underwater communication infrastructure.

Pop's publications emphasize high-data-rate communication, zero-power receivers, and novel phased-array platforms. His acoustic discovery architecture (ADA) enables real-time network monitoring in biomedical and underwater environments. Current projects include SEANET, a programmable internet of underwater things, and bio-heating systems using piezoelectric transducers.

His contributions span academic-industrial collaborations and interdisciplinary projects at the intersection of electrical engineering, materials science, and biomedical research. Grants and future work focus on next-generation implantable devices and MEMS-assisted communication systems.
