2nd Biomechanics in Sport and ageing symposium
Artificial intelligence
Budapest 15-16 October 2024
Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering by the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM), Master in Big Data Analytics from the European University of Madrid, and Master in Acoustic Engineering (UPM). Luis did his doctoral thesis at the Instrumentation and Applied Acoustics Research Group (I2A2-UPM) in collaboration with the Ergonomics & Human Factors Group (EHF) at the Universidade do Minho (Guimares-Portugal). His research involves the automatic detection of human movement using wearable sensors (wearables) and artificial intelligence with application in physical activity monitoring, Parkinson's disease assessment, and occupational risk prevention.
Luis is passionate in the application of cutting-edge technologies to solve real problems. He has participated in 8 research projects funded by competitive grants, authored 9 indexed scientific articles, 4 book chapters, and 9 presentations at international congresses. Additionally, his served as the director of 8 final degree projects (Bachelor and Master) and 1 Ph.D. student.
Currently he is working as a postdoctoral researcher in the cross-European Project: WEALTH (Wearable sensors for the assessment of physical and eating behaviours) and the Spain project: Biomarcadores digitales para la evaluación del estado motor de pacientes con Enfermedad de Párkinson para su aplicación Clínica y Terapéutica (BIOCLITE). Also, he is part of the Data-Driven Computer Engineering Research Group (D2ICE), in the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering, and the Health Research Institute (HRI) at the University of Limerick.
