ROXAS, Edison A.

Dr. Edison A. Roxas received his Bachelor of Science in Electronics and Communications Engineering degree from the Technological Institute of the Philippines – Manila and his Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy in Electronics and Communications Engineering degree from De La Salle University. A licensed Professional Electronics Engineer (PECE) and a member of the Institute of Electronics Engineers of the Philippines (IECEP) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). He is currently the Chairperson of the Electronics Engineering Department at the University of Santo Tomas.

Last academic year, he was immersed in the Unibersidad de Manila (UDM) as a Research and Development Leader (RDLeader) by the Department of Science and Technology – National Research Council of the Philippines (DOST-NRCP). During his engagement with UDM, he was able to prepare and execute the Research Roadmap of the University. His notable contributions are several international research collaborations, the creation and submission of research proposals for possible funding, and an increased number of research initiatives across all departments of UDM.

An active researcher with numerous international conferences and journal publications, and participated in several funded research grants either as main proponent, research assistant, or project staff. He is a resident researcher of the UST-RCNAS (Research Center for Natural and Applied Sciences).

His research interests focus on Computer Vision, Data Science Analytics, and Artificial Intelligence applied in Digital Health and Biomedical Engineering.
