About

Francesca Maradei is a leading researcher in electromagnetic field theory and wireless power transfer, with a particular focus on biomedical applications. Her most influential work centers on developing innovative wireless charging systems for implantable medical devices, most notably her 2021 paper on a wireless charging system for implantable capsule robots, which has garnered 23 citations. In this groundbreaking study, Maradei introduced a novel transmitting coil configuration combining a Helmholtz coil with a birdcage coil, generating a magnetic field with all nonzero components at any location within the human body—a critical advancement for powering next-generation ingestible diagnostic and therapeutic robots. Her contributions bridge the gap between electromagnetic engineering and biomedical technology, addressing key challenges in safe, efficient power delivery to deep-body implants. Maradei’s work has significant implications for minimally invasive medicine, enabling longer-duration capsule endoscopy procedures and targeted drug delivery systems. Her research continues to shape the future of implantable device design, earning recognition for its practical impact on patient care and its integration of advanced coil topologies with real-world clinical needs.
