BioArye Rosen received the Masters degree in engineering from Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, the M.Sc. degree in physiology from Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia, PA, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from Drexel University, Philadelphia, PA.

Dr. Rosen, who has been involved in research and development of microwave/millimeter-wave devices and circuits, microwave optical interaction, high-power semiconductor lasers and the utilization of energies for application in therapeutic medicine for the past 40 years, currently holds an appointment as Academy Professor of Biomedical and Electrical Engineering in the School of Biomedical Engineering, Science and Health Systems at Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA. He also holds the title of Associate in Medicine at Jefferson Medical College, where he has been engaged in research in the Division of Cardiology since 1970, and is co-founder of the Medical Technology Center for Infants and Children, St. Peter's University Hospital, New Brunswick, NJ (2003-).

Dr. Rosen has authored more than 150 technical papers, co-edited two books: High-Power Optically Activated Solid-State Switches (Norwood, MA: Artech House, 1993), and New Frontiers in Medical Device Technology (New York: Wiley, 1995), as well as six book-chapters in the field of engineering and medicine. He holds over 55 U.S. patents in the fields of engineering and medicine.

Additional InformationDr. Rosen is an elected Member of the National Academy of Engineering, "For contributions to microwave and laser technologies and the medical applications of these technologies." (2002). He is an Elected Member of The Franklin Institute's Committee on Science and the Arts (2003), and a Member of the John Scott Award Advisory Committee, City of Philadelphia Board of Directors of City Trusts (2004). He is a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), elected in 1992 "For innovation in semiconductor devices and circuits for use in microwave systems and for microwave applications to medicine." He was IEEE Distinguished Microwave Lecturer from 1997 to 2000, during which time he has presented his and the work of others in the U.S., Japan, Europe and the Middle East. He is the recipient of numerous awards, including the IEEE Third Millennium Medal (January 2000) and an IEEE Microwave Application Award (June 2000).
