A Ph.D. student in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering, he is advised by Emmanouil M. Tentzeris.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThe title of Mr. Cook\u0027s work is \u0022Inkjet-Printed Millimeter-Wave Antennas and Sensors for Smart Skin Applications.\u0022 Printing is a century-old technology that has allowed for the mass re-production of patterns. By replacing the standard colored inks in printers with custom in-house electronic inks developed in Dr. Tentzeris\u0027 research group, wires, sensors, transistors, and antennas can be printed onto a wide variety of substrates such as paper. This technology allows for a breakthrough in manufacturing \u0022smart skins,\u0022 which are large printed wallpapers of cognitive sensors. These smart skins can sense strains or cracks on bridges, toxic gases in buildings, or the shelf-life of produce in grocery stores at a cost which isn\u0027t much higher than printing newspapers roll-to-roll.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIn addition to a monetary award, Mr. Cook\u0027s achievement will be recognized in an upcoming issue of \u003Cem\u003EIEEE Antennas and Propagation Society Magazine\u003C\/em\u003E. Before pursuing his Ph.D. at Georgia Tech, he received his B.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in 2010 and his M.A.Sc. in electrical engineering from King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, Saudi Arabia in 2011.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EECE Ph.D. student Ben Cook has won a prestigious IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society Doctoral Research Award.\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"ECE Ph.D. student Ben Cook wins a prestigious IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society Doctoral Research Award."}],"uid":"27241","created_gmt":"2012-11-08 11:30:17","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:13:06","author":"Jackie Nemeth","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2012-11-08T00:00:00-05:00","iso_date":"2012-11-08T00:00:00-05:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"169541":{"id":"169541","type":"image","title":"Benjamin Cook","body":null,"created":"1449178968","gmt_created":"2015-12-03 21:42:48","changed":"1475894809","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:46:49","alt":"Benjamin Cook","file":{"fid":"195674","name":"ben_cook.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/ben_cook_0.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/ben_cook_0.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":203438,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/ben_cook_0.jpg?itok=7hvC9p6h"}}},"media_ids":["169541"],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.gatech.edu\/","title":"Georgia Tech"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.ece.gatech.edu\/","title":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.ieeeaps.org\/","title":"IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society"}],"groups":[{"id":"1255","name":"School of Electrical and Computer Engineering"}],"categories":[{"id":"42941","name":"Art Research"},{"id":"134","name":"Student and Faculty"},{"id":"8862","name":"Student Research"},{"id":"144","name":"Energy"},{"id":"145","name":"Engineering"},{"id":"154","name":"Environment"},{"id":"149","name":"Nanotechnology and Nanoscience"}],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[{"id":"39441","name":"Bioengineering and Bioscience"},{"id":"39451","name":"Electronics and Nanotechnology"},{"id":"39531","name":"Energy and Sustainable Infrastructure"},{"id":"39471","name":"Materials"}],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EJackie Nemeth\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESchool of Electrical and Computer Engineering\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E404-894-2906\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:jackie.nemeth@ece.gatech.edu\u0022\u003Ejackie.nemeth@ece.gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":["jackie.nemeth@ece.gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
