Remembering Dimitris Psychoudakis (1973–2021) [In Memoriam

Abstract

It is with much sadness that we write to express our final goodbye to a strong contributor and very active member of our IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (AP-S), Dr. Dimitris Psychoudakis, who was born in Thessaloniki, Greece, on 2 April 1973. He excelled in physics (B.S. degree) and electrical engineering (M.S. degree), and, in 1999, he moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan, to pursue his Ph.D. degree at The University of Michigan, completing it in 2004. In 2005, he joined The Ohio State University ElectroScience Lab as a postdoctoral researcher and, later, senior research associate, where he stayed until 2012. Between 2012 and 2017, he worked at Samsung Research America as a staff and senior staff engineer. He joined the Dallas-based start-up Phazr (acquired by JMA Wireless) in 2017 as the director of electromagnetic antennas.
