George V. Eleftheriades earned his Ph.D. and M.S.E.E. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, in 1993 and 1989 respectively. He received a diploma (with distinction) in Electrical Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens, Greece in 1988. In the period 1994-1997 he was with the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, where he was engaged in the design of millimeter and sub-millimeter wave receivers, and the creation of fast CAD tools for planar packaged microwave circuits. Currently he is an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Toronto.

Dr. Eleftheriades received the Ontario Premier's Research Excellence Award and the Gordon Slemon Award for the “teaching of design” from the University of Toronto both in 2001. He also received an E.W.R. Steacie Fellowship from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada in 2004.

Presently he is leading a Group of about twelve graduate students in the areas of electromagnetic negative-refractive-index metamaterials, IC antennas and components for broadband wireless communications, novel antenna beam-steering techniques, low-loss Silicon micromachined components, sub-mm-wave radiometric receivers, and electromagnetic design for high-speed digital circuits. Dr. Eleftheriades is the Wireless Thrust Leader of the Nortel Institute for Telecommunications.
