Biography

Angela C. Stelson received her B.S. in Physics, Mathematics, and Political Science from the University of Oregon in Eugene, OR, USA (2012), and her Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from Cornell University in Ithaca, NY, USA (2017). Her graduate work focused on the electric field-directed assembly of colloids for photonic crystal applications. She joined the National Institute of Standards and Technology as a National Research Council Fellow in 2017 developing on-chip microwave microfluidics measurement techniques for chemical and biological applications. Currently, she works in the Guided Wave Electromagnetics Group in the Communications Technology Laboratory developing traceable scattering parameter and microwave power calibrations. She is the calibration lead for NIST’s S-parameters calibration service. This effort leads to reduced uncertainties across calibration laboratories that rely on traceability to NIST. She has also worked extensively with on-chip microwave metrology to develop new calibration techniques with uncertainties for microwave microfluidic measurements. Currently, she is leading a project to develop broadband electric-acoustic measurements on-chip for physical chemistry applications.
