Biography

Ali Jamnia enjoys teaching and mentoring junior engineers. His primary expertise lies in electromechanical systems design and development. In addition, he enjoys conducting analysis of various engineering problems using numerical approximations and computer simulations. Dr. Jamnia has focused on the issues of electronics packaging since the early 1990s, and since 1995, has been involved with the development of medical devices. He is passionate about innovative electronics systems to aid individuals with either physical or cognitive disabilities. In fact, his prime achievement has been the development of a specialized computer system called the Learning StationTM - used as a teaching tool for individuals with cognitive disabilities. Currently, he is the reliability lead for a family of medical infusion pumps.
