Luca Faes personal webpage
I am a biomedical engineer, currently
working as Associate Professor at the Department of Energy, Information engineering and Mathematical models (DEIM), University of Palermo, and at the BIOtech Center of the Dept. of Industrial Engineering, University of Trento, Italy.
My research regards the development of methods for time
series analysis and system modeling, with applications to cardiovascular
neuroscience, cardiac arrhythmias, brain connectivity and physiological networks. Within these
fields, I have authored five book chapters and more than 140 publications, receiving more than 2700 citations until now.
