Mohamed Abbas received the B.Sc.
and M.Sc. degrees in electrical and
electronics engineering from Assiut
University, Egypt and Ph.D. degree from
EE Dept., the University of Tokyo, Japan
in Sept. 2006. In October 2006, he joined
Assiut University, Egypt as a faculty member of the Electrical and Electronics Engineering Dept. From July 2008
to Sept. 2010, he had been working as a post-doctor researcher in Advantest D2T Research Division, VDEC,
and the University of Tokyo. From October 2010 he rejoined Assiut University as an Assistant, then, Associate
professor in March 2013. From March 2016 till today he
has been joining King Saud University as an Associate
professor in Electrical Engineering Department. He is a
member of IEEE Solid State Circuits Society; Technical
Committee of IEEE International Symposium on Electronic System Design (ISED), IEEE International Design
and Test Symposium (IDT) and International Conference
of Electronics Circuits and Systems (ICECS). His research interests include Designing of high-reliability
low-power VLSI circuits and systems, Testing of mixed
signal circuits and MEMS for biological applications and
recently he is pursuing researches in Electronics for
medical applications.
