I am Amirhossein Askarian, a Ph.D. researcher at the Poly-Grames Research Center, Polytechnique Montreal since May 2018. I graduated in Electrical Engineering from Amirkabir University of Technology (AUT) in Tehran, Iran. I am conducting research on the integration of multi-band antenna arrays with electro-optic components for analog Radio-over-Fiber (ARoF) based wireless systems.
I enjoy teamwork, academic and non-academic collaboration activities, and event planning. In my pastime, though, I usually go swimming, running, hiking, play volleyball and tennis. By the way, I enjoy spending time in nature and capturing all the wonderful moments of beauty with my camera.

I am Chandan Roy. I received a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Khulna University of Engineering and Technology, Bangladesh, and a Master of Technology (M.Tech.) degree in Communication and Signal Processing Engineering from the National Institute of Technology, Silchar, India, respectively. Currently, I am pursuing a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering at Poly-Grames in Polytechnique Montreal. My research interest includes microwave components’ design optimization such as tunable filters, couplers, etc. In addition, I am highly interested in machine learning techniques such as artificial neural network modeling for microwave component designing.
Apart from my academic activities, I am a movie buff. Especially, I do like suspense thriller movies regardless of their country of origin. In addition, I play the electric keyboard and read fiction novels in my leisure time. Thus, if you have a common interest with me and want to discuss it while grabbing a cup of coffee, you are most welcome.

I am Qingtao Chen, a Ph.D. candidate at Poly-Grames Research Center, Polytechnique Montréal, Université de Montréal. My research interests include photonic devices based on femtosecond laser processing technology, integrated multi-application antennas, antenna arrays, and high-performance photodetectors. Currently, I am a volunteer for the IEEE student branch at Polytechnique Montréal as a coordinator. In our branch, I will coordinate to organize various activities to share different cultures and workshops to present different scientific viewpoints and perspectives. In my spare time, I enjoy playing badminton, tennis, and ping-pong with my friends. Welcome to join us if you are interested in those activities.
