Profile

Raouf Naguib is Professor of Biomedical Computing and Head of BIOCORE. Prior to this appointment he was a Lecturer at Newcastle University, UK. He has published over 240 journal and conference papers and reports in many aspects of biomedical and digital signal processing, biomedical image processing and the applications of artificial intelligence and evolutionary computation in cancer research. He has also published a book on digital filtering, and co-edited a second book on the applications of artificial neural networks in cancer diagnosis, prognosis and patient management, which is his main area of research interest. He was awarded the Fulbright Cancer Fellowship in 1995-96 when he carried out research in the USA, at the University of Hawaii in Mãnoa, on the applications of artificial neural networks in breast cancer diagnosis and prognosis.

Prof Naguib is a member of several national and international research committees and boards, and has recently served on the Administrative Committee of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBS). He has also recently been selected to join the UK EPSRC Peer Review College and is a reviewer for the EU Directorate-General Information Society, eHealth and ICT for Health.

He is actively taking part in a number of collaborative research projects with various partners and consortia in the UK (breast, colon, ovarian and urological cancers, and Hodgkin's disease), the EU (prostate and colorectal cancers), the USA (breast cancer and cancers of the oesophago-gastric junction) and Egypt (bladder cancer).

Prof Naguib has recently been appointed as Adjunct Research Professor at the University of Carleton, Ottawa, Canada, and an Honorary Professor at De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines.
