Brief introduction of the lecturer:

Dr. Wolfgang Kainz is Senior Principal Scientist at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the Center for Devices and Radiological Health. Dr. Kainz received an MS degree in electrical engineering from the Technical University of Vienna, Austria, in 1997 and a PhD degree in technical science from the same university in 2000. He is Chairman of the IEEE, International Committee on Electromagnetic Safety (ICES), Technical Committee 34, which develops compliance techniques for wireless devices, and he is a member of the Administrative Committee of ICES. His research interest is currently focused on the safety and effectiveness of medical devices and safety of humans in electromagnetic fields. This includes computational electrodynamics for safety and effectiveness evaluations using anatomical models of the human anatomy; magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) safety; performance and safety of wireless technology used in medical devices; electromagnetic compatibility of medical devices; and dosimetric exposure assessments. In 2010 Dr. Kainz received the Food and Drug Administration’s Award of Merit for exceptional leadership in performance in addressing issues of compatibility of medical devices during magnetic resonance imaging by applying transparently scientific research to device regulation.
