Curriculum vitae

Hamed Yousefi       


I am extremely enthusiastic about biomedical image and signal processing along with a planner and cautious character. I have never chosen a field of study by chance, popularity or other's opinion. The first and the last criterion that I have had in my decisions was and will be my personal concern. As a result, I have become more and more interested in pursuing my Ph.D. in medical image and signal analysis. However, according to my personality, I am enough confident and determined to tackle the difficulties of facing with new subjects and learn new skills whenever it is needed as I have proved this in the variety of my work experiences and academic projects.
