Ts. Dr. Asnida Abdul Wahab

Niche Area : Diagnostic and Therapeutic Technology

Ts. Dr. Asnida is currently a Senior Lecturer and holds a position as an Academic Manager at School of Biomedical Engineering and Health Sciences, Faculty of Engineering, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). She received her Master of Engineering degree in Electrical and Electronics from the University of Bristol in 2008 and obtained her Ph.D in Biomedical Engineering from UTM in 2016. Prior to her doctorate studies, she worked with a multinational company and attained her Chartered Engineer certification from UK Engineering Council.

Her research interest and expertise evolve around diagnostic and therapeutic technology which includes thermal medical imaging, medical image processing, computational modelling and simulation, assistive medical device, bio-instrumentation and application of artificial intelligence for biomedical applications. She has published many research articles and book chapters in the same field and has been invited to review articles from various high impact journals. She has filed a number of intellectual properties including patent and copyright and has been granted multiple research grants for her research works. She is an associate member of Medical Device and Technology Center (MEDITEC), a member of Diagnostic Research Group, a graduate member of BEM Malaysia and a member of IET (UK).
