ABOUT ME
Pablo Laguna is Full Professor of Signal Processing and Communications in the Department of Electrical Engineering at the Engineering School, where he has being vice-dean for international relation (1999-2002), and a researcher at the Aragón Institute for Engineering Research (I3A), both at University of Zaragoza, Spain, where he has being responsible of the Biomedical Engineering division of the I3A (2000-2011) and of the master in Biomedical Engineering (2003- 2010). He is also member, and has served as scientific director (2011-2015), of the Spanish Center for Biomedical Engineering, Biomaterial and Nano-medicine Research CIBER-BBN.
His professional research interests are in Signal Processing, in particular applied to Biomedical applications. He has co-authored more than 150 research papers on this topic, over 300 international conference papers, and has advise 15 Ph.D Thesis. He has lead a broad number of projects on biomedical signal interpretation specially in the cardiovascular domain, most of them with international collaborations at clinical and engineering sites. He is having some international scientific responsibilities, as serving as past-president of the board of directors of Computing in Cardiology conference, editor of the digital signal processing journal (Eurasip), and of the Medical and Biological Engineering and Computing (springer), organizer of different scientific conferences, etc. He is also responsible of the Ph.D. program in Biomedical Engineering at Zaragoza University. He is Fellow of the IEEE. He is, together with L. Sörnmo, the author of Bioelectrical Signal Processing in Cardiac and Neurological Applications, book (Elsevier, 2005).
