Ariel Epstein received the B.A. degree in Computer Science from the Open University of Israel, and the B.A. degree in Physics and the B.Sc. degree in Electrical Engineering from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel, in 2000 and 2003, respectively. In 2013 he received his Ph.D. from the Technion for his thesis, titled "Rigorous Electromagnetic Analysis of Optical Emission of Organic Light-Emitting Diodes". His paper, "On the Relevance of Two-Dimensional Sources for Modeling Optical Emission from Layered Media" was the recipient of the Young Scientist Best Paper Award of the URSI Commission B International Symposium on Electromagnetic Theory (EMTS2013) held in Hiroshima, Japan, on May 2013. He is currently a Lyon Sachs Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Toronto in the Electromagnetics group under the supervision of Professor Eleftheriades. His current research interests include utilization of electromagnetic theory, with emphasis on analytical techniques, for novel applications, e.g. electromagnetic metamaterials , nanoelectronic devices, etc.
