Simon HEMOUR

Simon Hemour (Senior Member, IEEE) received the B.S. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Grenoble Alpes, Grenoble, France, in 2004, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in optics, optoelectronics, and microwave engineering from the Grenoble Institute of Technology, Grenoble, in 2006 and 2010, respectively.,In 2003, he was with the European Organization for Nuclear Research, Geneva, Switzerland, as a member of the Instrumentation Department, where he was involved in the ATLAS experiment on the Large Hadron Collider. From 2006 to 2007, he was a Research Assistant with the Pidstryhach Institute of Applied Problems of Mechanics and Mathematics, National Academy of Science of Ukraine, Lviv, Ukraine. In 2007, he joined the IMEP-LAHC MINATEC Laboratory, Grenoble. From 2011 to 2015, he was with the Poly-Grames Research Center, École Polytechnique de Montréal, Montreal, QC, Canada, where he was coordinating the Wireless Power Transmission and Harvesting Research Group. He joined the Université de Bordeaux, Bordeaux, France, in 2015, where he is currently an Associate Professor and he leads research in wireless micro-energy solutions for the Internet-of-Things (IoT) and biomedical applications. His current research interests include wireless power transfer and hybrid energy harvesting, backscattering, nonlinear and negative resistance devices, innovative radio frequency (RF) measurements, RF interferometry, low-power microwave, and millimeter-wave conversion circuits, and development of RF transponders and sensors for wireless systems and biomedical applications. Dr. Hemour is a member of the IEEE MTT-25 Wireless Energy Transfer and Conversion Technical Committee. He was the TPC Chair of the 2018 Wireless Power Transfer Conference (WPTC), the TPC chair of 2023 RFID-TA conference and be the General Chair of the 2022 WPW. He has served in the past in the Editorial Board or as Guest editor in the Wireless Power Transfer journal (Cambridge University Press), the IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques and IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics, RF and Microwaves in Medicine and Biology.
