About
Dr. Faezeh Rahimi is a leading researcher at the intersection of biomedical engineering and electromagnetic safety, whose work directly addresses critical patient safety concerns in an increasingly connected world. Her primary research areas include electromagnetic interference (EMI) with active implantable medical devices (AIMDs), high-fidelity magnetic field mapping, and the characterization of stray magnetic fields from consumer electronics. Dr. Rahimi’s most notable contribution is her pioneering study, "High-Fidelity 3D Stray Magnetic Field Mapping of Smartphones to Address Safety Considerations with Active Implantable Electronic Medical Devices" (2023, 5 citations), which provided the first comprehensive, three-dimensional analysis of magnetic field emissions from modern smartphones. By demonstrating that powerful magnets in these devices can pose a tangible risk of EMI—potentially causing life-threatening malfunctions in pacemakers and defibrillators—her work has become a cornerstone for updated clinical guidelines and device safety standards. This achievement underscores her profound impact on both engineering practice and patient welfare, establishing her as a vital voice in the ongoing dialogue between technology innovation and medical safety.
