DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThe field of RF has undergone a paradigm shift in 
 recent years. From being a technology that had its utilization mainly in T
 elecommunications and Radar applications\, it is today the forefront techn
 ology for a myriad of biomedical applications. The market for biomedical a
 pplications is expanding and this in turn is constantly driving the demand
  for a plethora of RF products with smaller sizes\, increased functionalit
 y\, and integration. Consequently\, recent years have seen rapid changes i
 n RF techniques as well as technology. This trend is continuing enabling t
 he use of increasingly higher RF frequencies with their inherent advantage
 s of smaller component size and larger bandwidth. In particular\, the use 
 millimeter waves\, and sub-terahertz frequencies has opened new opportunit
 ies in terms of development of non-invasive sensors for variety of biomedi
 cal applications including diagnostic and drug delivery systems.\n\nThe ta
 lk will cover some of the biomedical applications of RF\, Microwave\, Mill
 imeter waves and sub-terahertz frequencies. Examples and use of body area 
 networks\, targeted drug delivery systems\, painless diagnostic systems\, 
 vital body parameter monitoring\, non-invasive blood glucose monitoring se
 nsors\, imaging to effectively detect breast cancer etc. will be presented
 . Use of millimeter waves for diagnostics and treatment of certain body pa
 rameter disorders will also be described. Finally\, the scope for future r
 esearch in this important area will be briefly presented.\n\nCo-sponsored
