Khaled Nabil Salama | 提升监测能力：可穿戴传感器在推动医疗、环境与海洋研究中的作用

This seminar examines the transformative impact of wearable sensor technologies across healthcare, environmental monitoring, and marine biology. In healthcare, these sensors enable continuous monitoring for enhanced patient care and disease management. Environmental applications range from real-time pollution monitoring to ecosystem management, while in marine biology, wearable sensors facilitate non-invasive studies of aquatic life. The discussion will highlight technological advancements in sensor miniaturization, embedded AI (edge AI) and energy efficiency, emphasizing the critical role of interdisciplinary collaboration in optimizing wearable technologies for diverse applications.

Professor Khaled Nabil Salama serves as a professor of Electrical and Computer engineering. He earned his bachelor's degree with honors from Cairo University in 1997 and later completed his master's and doctoral degrees at Stanford University in 2000 and 2005, respectively. His early academic career included a position as an assistant professor at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute before joining KAUST in 2009, where he was the founding program chair for Electrical Engineering until 2011. He was the director of KAUST sensors initiative between 2016-2021 and associate director of the semiconductors initiative between 2022-2025 and is currently the faculty director of KAUST nano-fabrication facility. Professor Salama's research is highly interdisciplinary, focusing on the development of integrated devices, circuits, systems, and algorithms to facilitate inexpensive analytical platforms for industrial, environmental, and biomedical applications. He has made significant contributions to the field of low-power mixed-signal circuits for intelligent sensors and integrated biosensors. His work also extends into VLSI architectures for bio-imaging and instrumentation. More recently, he has been involved in pioneering neuromorphic circuits aimed at emulating brain functions. His scholarly output includes over 450 papers and 48 US patents.
