Rate My Professor Qammer Abbasi

Abbasi's research focuses on applied electromagnetics, antennas and propagation for 5G and 6G systems, body-centric wireless communications, nano-electromagnetic communication at terahertz and optical frequencies, integrated sensing and communication, reconfigurable intelligent surfaces, and biomedical sensing for healthcare applications such as vital signs monitoring and non-invasive glucose detection. He has attracted over £14 million in research funding, produced more than 500 publications including contributions to Nature journals, and edited ten books, among them 'Antennas and Propagation for 5G and Beyond' (2020), 'Intelligent Reconfigurable Surfaces (IRS) for Prospective 6G Wireless Networks' (2023), and 'The Role of 6G and Beyond on the Road to Net-Zero Carbon' (2023). His achievements include Fellowships from the Royal Society of Edinburgh, Institution of Engineering and Technology, and European Alliance of Innovation; the Sensors Young Investigator Award (2022); University of Glasgow Teaching Excellence Award (2022); and World Class Professor Award (2022). Abbasi advises the UK and Scottish Governments on science policy, chairs IEEE AP/MTT UK, Ireland, and Scotland Joint Chapter, supervises 23 PhD students and over 10 postdocs, and contributes to editorial boards and conference organization.
