Biography
Liam Marnane is Professor in Electrical and Electronic Engineering in University College Cork (UCC). He received the B.E. degree in electrical engineering from UCC in 1984, and the D.Phil. degree from the University of Oxford, U.K., in 1989. The subject of his D.Phil. thesis was “Testing VLSI Regular Arrays”. He was appointed lecturer in VLSI Design at the School of Electronic Engineering Science, University of Wales, Bangor, in 1989. In 1992 he was awarded a Post Doctoral Marie Curie Fellowship from the European Union to investigate Design for Test of VLSI arrays at IRISA University of Rennes. In 1993 he was appointed as Lecturer in Digital Signal Processing in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at UCC, as Senior Lecturer in 1999 and Professor in 2014. He was vice head of the School of Engineering, UCC, from 2010 to 2013. He was Dean of Graduate Studies for UCC from 2013 to 2016. He was Head of School of Engineering in UCC from 2016 to 2019. He was a Co-PI in the Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) funded Claude Shannon Institute for Discrete Mathematics, Coding and Cryptography (2006-2012). He was Director of the SFI funded Strategic Research Cluster on Efficient Embedded Digital Signal Processing for Mobile Digital Health (2007-2011). He is PI and Deputy Director of the INFANT research centre- Irish Centre for Fetal and Neonatal Translational Research. His main research interests are in biomedical signal processing and machine learning. This research has focused on Neonatel EEG signal analysis and processing. He was Lead PI on Wellcome Trust Strategic Translational Award (2012-2017) which has carried out a Multicentre Clinical Evaluation of the ANSeR Neonatal Seizure Detection Algorithm. In 1999 he was a visiting researcher to the Electronic Devices Research Group, Department of Physics, Univer
