PROF. ASHU SABHARWAL

Rice University, Houston, TX, USA

Ashutosh Sabharwal is a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering in Rice University, Houston, Texas. He is the founder of WARP project (warp.rice.edu), an open-source project which is now in use at more than 125 research groups worldwide, and have been used by more than 250 research articles. His research has spanned both fundamental theory and experimental systems. He is a Fellow of IEEE for his contributions to the theory and experimentation in wireless systems and communications. These days, he is also working on a second research area and has founded the Rice Scalable Health Initiative (http://sh.rice.edu). The goal of the new initiative is both foundational research, and technology translation to make measurable impact in healthcare and wellness. His past research has led to two commercial spinoffs, Mango Communications to commercialize WARP (www.mangocomm.com, founded in 2008) and Cognita Labs to develop novel chronic care products  (www.cognitalabs.com, founded in 2013).
