Iman received his B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from Amirkabir University in 2006 and 2008, respectively. During those foundational undergraduate years, he was working on structurally-modified new light sources (light emitting diodes) and measurement of their optical pattern. In his master program, he changed the research towards a newly-emerged, three-port optoelectronic device called the Transistor Laser. In order to work with pioneers of the field, he found this opportunity to join the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign where he was studied and developed the first carrier dynamic model of TL. His current research interests include optical biosensors for cancer early detection. He has won two Merit Fellowships (North Carolina State University), one Visiting Researcher Scholarship, IEEE Distinguished Thesis Award, and several in-school Research awards. He is the first author of more than 20 papers and one book chapter.
