Professor of Information & Computer Sciences
Deepak Ganesan is a professor in the Manning College of Information and Computer Sciences (CICS). Ganesan's research is at the intersection of low-power sensing and communication, networked systems, and machine learning to enable pervasive sensing at scale for societal applications. His recent work includes the design of ultra-low passive radios for wearables, novel wearable technologies such as low-power eye trackers to monitor health signals, and robust detection of important health targets such as drug use, smoking, and overeating. He is a thrust lead on the NIH funded MD2K Center for Excellence on Mobile Sensor-to-Knowledge and on the executive committee of the Center for Personal Health Monitoring at UMass Amherst.
Current Research
My research interests include systems, networking and data management issues in wireless, sensor and mobile networks.
