Zahra received her B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in degree in telecommunication and electronics engineering from Iran University of Science and Technology (IUST), Iran, in 2014 and 2016, and her Ph.D. degree from the University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada, in 2020. During her Ph.D., she focused on designing microwave planar sensing structures for distant, non-invasive, and real-time sensing. The designs Zahra developed during her Ph.D. have enabled a wide range of applications, from oil and gas harsh environment sensing to a non-invasive glucose monitoring device. She is currently a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the Waterloo Microfluidics Lab. Her research focuses on integrating active and passive microwave circuits and sensors with microfluidic devices for real-time monitoring, controlling, heating, and content sensing of individual droplets. ahra received her B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in degree in telecommunication and electronics engineering from Iran University of Science and Technology (IUST), Iran, in 2014 and 2016, and her Ph.D. degree from the University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB, Canada, in 2020.
