Overview

Dr. Aly Saad Aly joined ECE at Georgia Tech-Shenzhen Institute (GTSI) as an Assistant Professor in 2022. He is also an Adjunct Assistant Professor in ECE at Georgia Institute of Technology. He received his B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of South Florida in 2006 and 2007, respectively. He earned a Ph.D. in Systems Design Engineering from the University of Waterloo, Canada in 2016. His Ph.D. work focused on microfluidic-based Lab-on- chip (LOC) for biomedical applications such as on-chip bacterial cell lysis and DNA isolation. Dr. Aly Saad Aly joined the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Tulane University during his postdoctoral fellowship. During his work at Tulane University, he collaborated with a team of researchers in designing and fabricating a platform used in neurophysiological studies. He then joined the Department of Electrical Engineering at Miami College of Henan University as an Assistant Professor. Before joining GTSI, Dr. Aly Saad Aly was a Research Professor at Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science & Technology (DGIST). During his work at DGIST, Dr. Aly Saad Aly’s research work focused on cell isolation/purification, hydrogel-based immunocytochemistry platform, and electroceutical approach (electrical stimulation) for enhancing neural cells myelination and as a treatment for sarcopenia. Dr. Aly Saad Aly worked in industrial environment where he was involved in several projects focused on Microelectrodes Arrays (MEAs): Design, simulation, and fabrication; Diagnostic and real-time image-guided surgery x-ray bio-imaging systems (such as C and U arm); Design, simulation and testing of portable electrochemical biosensors integrated into optical imaging systems. Dr. Aly Saad Aly’s research interests focused on microfluidics-based LOC toward developing low cost and easy-to-use microfluidic devices with ultra-low-power consumption for point-of-care, early detection, diagnosis, analysis, and testing for healthcare sector; nanocarriers-based smart drug delivery systems for antiviral and anticancer therapies; 2D-biomaterials interaction with vital biomolecules for biosensor related application and devices.
