Ali Zafari
Graduate Research Assistant, Rutgers ECE

I am a PhD student in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Rutgers University, where I have the privilege of being advised by Shirin Jalali. I research on the intersection of information theory and statistics, focusing on inverse problems. Previsously, I have done research on the application of neural data compression schemes in solar space explorations missions. I hold a B.Sc. from the University of Tehran and an M.Sc. from Sharif University of Technology, both in Electrical Engineering.
