    Regious Prof. Chris Toumazou

    Imperial College London, Institute of Biomedical Engineering, Director

    Professor Chris Toumazou has made outstanding contributions to the fields of low power analogue circuit design and current mode circuits and systems for radio frequency and biomedical applications. Through his extensive record of research he has invented innovative electronic devices ranging dual mode cellular phones to ultra-low power devices for both medical diagnosis and therapy. Toumazou has been involved with a number of commercial ventures and is also an advisor to many healthcare panels, including the Singapore Government in the field of medical devices. In order to realise the enormous potential of this technology, Toumazou led a campaign to create an Institute of Biomedical Engineering at Imperial College London focusing on Personalised Medicine and Bionanotechnology. This was achieved in 2003 and he became the founding Director of the new Institute.
