معرفی
Kawsar Ali serves as Departmental Lecturer in Medical Power Electronics at the University of Oxford's Department of Engineering Science since 2023, conducting research within the Power Electronics Group across diverse power-scale applications from microwatt energy harvesting to megawatt biomedical systems.
Education:
- B.Tech in Electrical Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Durgapur, India (2011)
- Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, National University of Singapore (2018)
Research Focus: Dr. Ali pioneers power electronics solutions spanning transportation, grid infrastructure, datacenters, and biomedical domains. His work leverages gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon carbide (SiC) devices for high-power-density converters, develops resonant power conversion techniques for high-frequency applications, and advances pulsed-power systems for transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) alongside ultra-low-power energy harvesting for IoT networks.
Key Projects:
- Magnetic Actuators and Neural Engineering for TMS Optimisation (MAGNETO)
- Advanced Self-Powered sensor units in Intense Radiation Environments (ASPIRE)
Professional Trajectory: Following industry experience as Operations Officer at Indian Oil Corporation Limited between his degrees, Dr. Ali joined Oxford's Power Electronics Group as Postdoctoral Researcher in 2018 before transitioning to his current faculty role, maintaining active collaboration with senior academics including Professors Dan Rogers and Tim Denison.
