ECG Time Series Variability Analysis

Associate Professor Herbert Jelinek received the B.Sc. (Hons.) degree in human genetics from the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia, followed by a Graduate Diploma in neuroscience from the Australian National University, Canberra, Australia, and his PhD. degree in medicine from the University of Sydney, Australia. He is a honorary Clinical Associate Professor with the Australian School of Advanced Medicine, Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia, and a member of the Centre for Research in Complex Systems, Charles Sturt University, Albury, Australia. Dr Jelinek has been organizing a rural diabetes complications screening research project for over ten years in Australia and has published widely in ECG signal processing and diabetic retinopathy image analysis as well as data mining applications of biomarkers associated with diabetes disease progression. His current research interests include neurogenetics of diabetes and cognitive function. He is a member of the IEEE Biomedical Engineering Society and the Australian Diabetes Association.
