To date, he has led and completed five internationally- and nationally funded research projects as the Principal Investigator, besides currently leading ongoing projects funded by the Research Council of Finland and the US Office of Naval Research Global. He also leads the Oulu team in the Horizon Europe TERRAMETA consortium. His research interests include antenna design and their applications in wearables / wireless body area communication (WBAN); metasurfaces and reflectors; next-generation communications; compact satellites; EM safety and absorption; and wireless techniques for healthcare. Dr. Soh was the recipient of the URSI Young Scientist Award in 2015, the IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (MTT-S) Graduate Fellowship for Medical Applications in 2013 and the IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society (AP-S) Doctoral Research Award in 2012. He was also the Second Place Winner of the IEEE Presidents' Change the World Competition in 2013. He is a Chartered Engineer registered with the UK Engineering Council, a Senior Member of the IEEE, and a Member of the IET and URSI. He serves an Associate Editor of the IEEE Antennas and Wireless Propagation Letters and the International Journal of Numerical Modelling: Electronic Networks, Devices and Fields (Wiley).
