Burak Erdil Biçer
Ph.D. student at Sapienza University of Rome
Department of Information Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunications (DIET)
Research interests: antennas, metamaterials, applied electromagnetics, machine learning
I am an electronics and communications engineer working on antennas, applied electromagnetics and wireless systems. From November 2026 I am a Ph.D. student in Information and Communications Technologies at Sapienza University of Rome.
I hold an M.Sc. in Communicating Systems from Sorbonne Université (Paris) and two B.Sc. degrees from Istanbul Technical University, in Electronics and Communications Engineering and in Aeronautical Engineering.
My master's research at GeePs (Paris) focused on the design and matching of a Ka-band Bull's Eye leaky-wave antenna. Earlier, I worked on microwave imaging for brain monitoring, phased-array antennas, biodegradable sensors, and machine-learning applications in computer vision and biosignal processing.
Outside the lab I have been Editor in Chief of arı24, Turkey's largest student media initiative, and a long-time World Cube Association competitor and organizer, with several Turkish national records. I enjoy travelling, photography and skiing, and I swam competitively at the Turkish National Championship in high school.
