Razieh Eskandari received M.Sc. from Urmia University (Urmia, Iran), and Ph.D. from Sahand University of technology (Tabriz, Iran) in 2012 and 2020 respectively, both in electrical engineering. She was with Umia semiconductor company between 2012 and 2015 as a researcher. Also, she was a lecturer at Sahand University of technology as from 2016 to 2022. She joined CenBRAIN Neurotech Center of Excellence in 2022 as a postdoctoral fellow.

She is a Research Assistant Professor specializing in wireless transceivers for biomedical applications, with a primary focus on developing technologies for brain-machine interfaces. Her current project centers around creating a wireless bidirectional data link for biomedical implants, particularly for brain-machine interfaces. These transceivers are designed to offer innovative solutions for studying the brain and enhancing treatments for neurodegenerative diseases. In her ongoing research, Razieh is working on ultra-low power and high data rate Impulse Radio Ultra-Wideband (IR-UWB) transceivers.
