Jianqing Wang, Department of Computer Science and Engineering,
Graduate School of Engineering, Nagoya Institute of
Technology, Japan Prof Wang has been working in wireless
communications since 1991, and began bio-medical EMC research in
1995. Since 1997, when he became a full professor, he has engaged
in body area communications for healthcare, medical, and in-car
applications. Prof Wang's considerable experience in both
communication and biology makes him an active member in several
body-area-communication-related academic committees, as well as an
invited speaker at international conferences. He teaches several
related courses to graduate students and has prepared materials for
the class lecture. He holds a PhD and Masters in Engineering
from Tohuku University, and Bachelors in Engineering from Beijing
Institute of Technology.

Qiong Wang, Department of Electrical Engineering and
Information Technology , Dresden University of Technology,
Germany Dr Wang achieved his Phd in Engineering from the
University of Nagoya, Japan, in 2010. Whilst studying he worked at
the same university as a technical assistant and is now based in
Germany at Dresden University of Technology.
