CV

Arturo Moncada-Torres started his PhD studies in July 2014 as part of the program in Biomedical Sciences in the ExpORL at KU Leuven, Belgium.
Born in 1988 in Mexico City, Mexico, he received his BSc degree in Biomedical Engineering (with focus on Instrumentation) with First Class Honors from the Universidad Iberoamericana (Mexico City, Mexico) with his thesis “Activity Classification on Healthy Subjects using an Enhanced IMU” in 2012. Furthermore, he received his MSc degree in Biomedical Engineering (with focus in Bioimaging) from ETH Zurich (Zurich, Switzerland) with his thesis “MR Measurements of Dynamic Changes in Aortic Vessel Area and Pulse Wave Velocities Induced by Simulated Obstructive Apnoea of 4D-MRI Data” in 2014.
His current interests lie in biologically-inspired modelling for bilateral cochlear implants and hearing aids using Digital Signal Processing techniques.
