Prof. SIGNORINI MARIA GABRIELLA
Professore Ordinario
Maria Gabriella Signorini is Full Professor in the scientific community of Bioengineers at the Department of Electronic, Information and Bioengineering (DEIB), Politecnico di Milano since 2021. 2003-2021, she served as Associate Professor. At the same University, she obtained the Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering In 1996-98 awarded a Post doc fellowship at the Biomedical Engineering Department. In 1999 she became Research Assistant. 2004-2014 she served as Coordinator of the Biomedical Engineering PhD track at the Doctorate School of the Politecnico di Milano. In 2014 -2016 she has been charged by the Italian Government as one of the nine members of the national Committee of Experts for the Policy of the Research (CEPR) at the Ministry of the University and Research (MIUR). Her main research field is focused on biomedical signal processing for the extraction of new clinical and diagnostic knowledge. The final goal of her activity is to improve healthcare paths and medical devices by introducing both new methodological approaches and technological solutions. The scientific activity of MGS is also devoted to multiparameter approaches integrating linear and nonlinear parameters towards the prediction of risk in antepartum fetal monitoring, premature babies, dialysis patients and others cardiovascular disease states. Research results have been translated into technological solutions with modification of existing instrumentations and biomedical devices (Cardiotocography, Dialysis) or design of new instrumentation (wearable fetal HR monitoring). MGS is working on AI classifiers, ML, Deep Learning models physiolodìgical feature based. In this context she is founder and member of the interdepartment lab DATACLOUD DataCloud (polimi.it)/), an high computing research infrastructure. MGS participates to research projects both as principal investigator and co-investigator. She is author of of more than 200 publications in the field of Bioingeneering journal papers, book chapters and international conference proceedings. She serves as Associate Editor for Computer, Methods and Programs in Biomedicine since 2018. Associate Editor Frontiers Neuroscience since 2016. Referee for several Scientific Journals in the field. (IEEE-EMBS Trans., Physiol. Measur, Chaos, Biom Eng &Comp, Sensors, Entropy, …). 2007 to date she is Associate Editor for the IEEE-EMBS Conference, Theme: Biomedical Signal Processing.
