research overview

  • 1.We are looking how weak electric and magnetic fields can modify the growth of some cancers and have shown that in some cases we can inhibit the growth by 25 to 30%. These results may have applications to RF safety standards and therapy. 2. We have done an extensive review of energy storage and the possible location for pumped hydroelectric systems in Colorado. 3. Paulo has developed a program that increases the efficiency of the electrical energy in municipal water system by 30 to 50% and significantly reduce costs. 4. We are currently looking at remote monitoring of patients and the reliability of RF, for transmitting data from the patient to the care giver or doctor. 5. We are looking at the potential to develop compressed air energy storage in Eastern Colorado

Teaching

courses taught

  • ECEN 4341 - Bioelectromagnetics
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2018 / Spring 2019 / Spring 2020 / Spring 2022 / Spring 2023
    Effects of electric and magnetic fields on biological systems are described with applications to therapy and safety. The complexity of biological systems is described to provide a better understanding of the distribution of fields inside the body. Risk analysis is also introduced. Same as ECEN 5341.
