Biography

Adam Noel is an Honorary Associate Professor in the School of Engineering (Systems and Information Stream) at the University of Warwick in Coventry, UK. He was previously an Assistant Professor (2018-2021) and Associate Professor (2021-2024) with the School. He is now an Associate Professor with Memorial University in St. John’s, NL, Canada, in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Adam received the B.Eng. degree in Electrical Engineering in 2009 from Memorial University. He received the M.A.Sc. degree in Electrical Engineering in 2011 and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2015, both from the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, BC, Canada. In 2013, he was a Visiting Scientist at the Institute for Digital Communication at Friedrich-Alexander-University in Erlangen, Germany. He was also a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Ottawa (2016-2018).

Adam is Chair of the IEEE Communication Society's Molecular, Biological and Multi-Scale Communications Techincal Committee (2024-2025) after previously serving as Vice-Chair (2022-2023) and Secretary (2020-2021). Adam is also an Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Molecular, Biological, and Multi-Scale Communications. He previously served as an Associate Editor for IEEE Communications Letters (2017-2021). He has received several awards from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Council of Canada, including a Postdoctoral Fellowship. He also received a Best Paper Award at the 2016 IEEE International Conference on Communications (one of the flagship conferences of the IEEE Communications Society).
