Mohammadreza Soltani, Postdoctoral Associate of Mathematics and Electrical and Computer Engineering

I am currently a postdoctoral associate in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at Duke University. I am working with Dr. Vahid Tarokh. I obtained my Ph.D. degree from the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department (ECpE) at Iowa State University (ISU) in 2019, where I was working under the supervision of Dr. Chinmay Hegde. I earned my first master's degree in Electrical Engineering from the Amirkabir Univesity of Technology, Tehran, Iran, and my second master's degree in Telecommunication with a minor in mathematics from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL),Ne, USA in 2011 and 2014, respectively.

Please note: Mohammadreza has left the Mathematics department at Duke University; some info here might not be up to date.
