Biography
Dr. Rajendra Dhakal was born in Nepal. I work as an Associate Professor at the College of Software Convergence , Department of Computer Engineering, Sejong University, Seoul, Korea. I received my Ph.D., in Electronic Engineering from Kwangwoon University, Seoul, Korea (2016). My dissertation was conducted on “Air-bridge cavity loaded micro-resonator biochip incorporating metal insulator capacitor for calibrating human glycemia by RF characterization”. I worked as the lead researcher for a Radio Frequency biosensor project and was responsible for the development of an integrated devices and analysis environment by radio frequency biosensing. My research interest lies in the development of a miniaturized, flexible, and reusable radio frequency resonator-based biosensor as a lab-on-a-chip device for the label-free, non-invasive detection of glucose in human blood in order to facilitate testing for type 1 and type 2 diabetes. I have used my extensive experience designing, developing, characterizing, and implementing radio frequency resonators and flexible filters for biomedical and other applications.
I have successfully reported my works in numerous prestigious journals, including Biosensor and Bioelectronics (Elsevier Publication), Applied Physics Letters (AIP Publication), Scientific Reports (Nature Publishing Group), Medical Engineering & Physics (Elsevier Publication), Nano Energy, Sensor and Actuator A- physical, Cancers, Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, Analytical Methods, Nanoscale Advances and so on. Moreover, these papers have been published in the top journals in Dr. Dhakal’s field, reflecting his peers’ recognition of the value of this research. I was honored with the outstanding Ph.D., foreign student by Kwangwoon University (2015) showing the greatest promise in international scientific publications, and patents along with outstanding presenter and the best paper award at a couple of international and domestic conferences.
I have been regularly invited to conduct peer review for authoritative journals in the field, including Micromachines, Sensors, Energies, Electronics, Technologies, Applied Sciences, Polymer, The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology, Electronics Letters, IET Microwaves, Antennas & Propagation, Medical Engineering and Physics, Tsinghua Science and Technology, Microwave and Optical Technology Letters, Sensor and Actuators B: Chemical, Wireless Personal Communications and Advanced functional materials. I have completed at least 100 reviews to date.
