Víctor Maojo, MD, PhD, FACMI D-2102 Departamento de Inteligencia Artificial Facultad de Informática Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Campus de Montegancedo s/n 28660 - Boadilla del Monte (Madrid) Spain Telephone: (+34) 91 336 68 97 Fax: (+34) 91 352 48 19 email: [email protected] Prof. Victor Maojo created the Biomedical Informatics Group in 1993. In 1994 he got two grants from the Spanish Ministerio de Sanidad and in 1995 a large award from Hewlett Packard USA ($200,000) which allowed to create the basic infrastructure of the group. Teaching. Since 1990 he teaches undergraduate and graduate courses on Biomedical Informatics, Knowledge Engineering, AI applications, History of Science and Cognitive Science. Training. He has sent students to various international universities, such as Health Science and Technology (Harvard-MIT), with whom he developed an intense exchange program, with six students, Rutgers University, the University of Utah and the US National Cancer Institute. He has participated in pioneering activities in medical informatics at the UPM, with undergraduate and graduate courses. Research. In 1996 he began to work on biomedical database integration, which later led to work on clinic-genomics database integration, a research that he pioneered with the First European Commission-funded project in this area (INFOGENMED). In 2008-2011 he was the coordinator and scientific leader of the Action Grid project, which was the first EC-funded project in the new area of Nanoinformatics. In this area he has written several seminal papers, which have contributed to consolidate the field. He participates as co-editor in a forthcoming book on Nanoinformatics principles and practice, edited by Elsevier. Other research areas include artificial intelligence in medicine, clinical guidelines and protocols, image processing and analysis, data and text mining, information retrieval, internet-based applications, models and tools for clinical trials and semantic interoperability. He is now coordinating the AFRICA BUILD project, including WHO and four African partners from Mali, Cameroon, Egypt and Ghana, to create centers of excellence in Africa where the use of information technologies can be used to improve health research and care. Through the Africa Build portal and a social network specially created for the project, the project aims to create a self-sustainable South-South infrastructure to carry out e-learning activities in the health domain.
