Welcome Kia, Javier, Mahdi, and Sultan Joining Our Lab!
Prof. Chon was elevated as IEEE Fellow for 2022
Professor Ki Chon was elevated as IEEE Fellow by the IEEE Board of Directors at its November 2021 meeting, effective 1 January 2022 with the following citation:
for the development of novel algorithms to detect atrial fibrillation from smart wearable devices
Each year, following a rigorous evaluation procedure, the IEEE Fellow Committee recommends a select group of recipients for elevation to IEEE Fellow. Less than 0.1% of voting members are selected annually for this member grade elevation.
Congratulations to Professor Ki Chon!
