Biosketch

After completed his BSc in Biomedical Equipment Technology, Abdulaziz works as teaching assistant at the same department that he graduated from for nearly two years. His roles were to be a lab demonstrator for many modules along with several administrative duties. Then, he gained master’s degree at the University of Leeds in the field of medical engineering, his studies focused on tissue engineering, biomechanics, biomaterials, joint replacement and robotics. After that, he back to work as a lecturer for nearly one year with different duties, meanwhile, he gained his second scholarship to study a PhD at the University of Warwick, sponsored by Prince Sattam bin Abdulaziz University.

Research project:

AI applied to imaging for improving efficacy and safety in robotic and minimally invasive surgery

The promising results brought by AI in different fields, and in particular in smart vision, increased the interest around AI applications for healthcare. Medical procedures, in fact, can greatly benefit from this technology. In particular, this project envisions to investigate an algorithm that can help surgical robots interventions, relying on images acquired on the patient during or prior to the surgery.
