Fernando Lisboa Teixeira received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro (PUC-Rio), Brazil, in 1991 and 1995, respectively, and the Ph.D degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL, in 1999.

While a student at PUC-Rio, he was a recipient of scholarships from the Brazilian agencies FAPERJ, TELEBRAS, and CNPq, and conducted research both at the Department of Electrical Engineering (Center for Telecommunication Studies) and at the Department of Physics. From 1992 to 1994 he was a technical officer with the Military Institute of Engineering, Rio de Janeiro and the Brazilian Army Research and Development Center (IPD-CTEx). From 1994 to 1996 he was a member of the technical staff in the Satellite Transmission Department of EMBRATEL S.A. (MCI/Worldcom), Rio de Janeiro. From 1996 to 1999, he was a Research Assistant with the Center for Computational Electromagnetics, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Urbana, IL. From 1999 to 2000 he was a Postdoctoral Research Associate with the Research Laboratory of Electronics, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge, MA. Since 2000 he has been an Assistant Professor at the ElectroScience Laboratory (ESL) and Department of Electrical Engineering, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH.

His current research interest include analytical and numerical techniques for wave propagation and scattering modeling in communication, sensing, materials, and devices applications. Specific application areas of interest include electromagnetic metamaterials, remote sensing, EMC/EMI problems, packaging and interconnect design for high-frequency circuit applications, and wireless communications (physical layer aspects). Previously, he has also been involved with integral equation analysis of reflector antennas, synthesis of shaped beam reflectors, interpolation techniques for reflector surfaces, synthesis of binary holograms, and numerical simulation of lattice gauge theories. He was the editor of the volume Geometric Methods for Computational Electromagnetics, PIER 32, (Cambridge, Mass.:EMW, 2001), and has published over 35 journals articles/book chapters and over 50 conference papers/abstracts in these areas.

Dr. Teixeira was awarded a CAPES Fellowship for 1996-1999. He received the Raj Mittra Outstanding Research Award from the University of Illinois, a 1998-1999 IEEE MTT-S Graduate Fellowship, a 2002 URSI Young Scientist Award, and received paper awards at the 1999 USNC/URSI National Radio Science Meeting (Boulder, CO) and at the 1999 IEEE AP-S International Symposium (Orlando, FL).

Dr. Teixeira is a member of Phi Kappa Phi, IEEE , SBMO, and SBF. He was the Technical Program Coordinator of the Progress in Electromagnetics Research Symposium (PIERS) 2000 and an AdCom member of PIERS 2002, in Cambridge, MA.
