About
Aakash received his M.S. (Research) degree in electrical engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi, New Delhi, India, in 2017 and the Ph.D. degree in computer science from the Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT), University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg in May 2021. His doctoral thesis was awarded the Outstanding Ph.D. Thesis Award by the Luxembourg National Research Fund (Fonds National de la Recherche - FNR) at the FNR Awards 2022 ceremony in Luxembourg in October 2022.

From July 2021 to August 2021, Aakash worked as a Research Associate/Postdoctoral Researcher with SnT, the University of Luxembourg. He then worked as a Consultant – 5G Baseband/Physical Layer Algorithm Researcher with Incluso AB (Client: Huawei Technologies Sweden AB), Stockholm, Sweden, from September 2021 to November 2022. From December 2022 to February 2024, he was an Assistant Professor with the Radio Systems group, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Twente, The Netherlands. Aakash has been an assistant professor at the Centre for Applied Research in Electronics at IIT Delhi since March 2024.
