Roman Genov received the B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from Rochester Institute of Technology, NY in 1996 and the M.S.E. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD in 1998 and 2003 respectively.

 

Dr. Genov held engineering positions at Atmel Corporation, Columbia, MD in 1995 and Xerox Corporation, Rochester, NY in 1996. He was a visiting researcher in the Laboratory of Intelligent Systems at Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL), Lausanne, Switzerland in 1998 and in the Center for Biological and Computational Learning at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA in 1999. He is presently an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Toronto, Canada.

 

Dr. Genov’s research interests include analog and digital VLSI circuits, systems and algorithms for energy-efficient signal processing with applications to electrical, chemical and photonic sensory information acquisition, biosensor arrays, neural interfaces, parallel signal processing, adaptive computing for pattern recognition, and implantable and wearable biomedical electronics. 

 

He received Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Next Generation Award in 2005, DALSA Corporation Componentware Award in 2006, and Brian L. Barge Award for Excellence in Microsystems Integration in 2008. He served as a technical program co-chair of IEEE Conference on Biomedical Circuits and Systems in 2007. He serves on the Advisory Board of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Rochester Institute of Technology, Rochester, NY. He is an Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Circuits and Systems and IEEE Signal Processing Letters.
