Professor Vo Van Toi obtained his Ph.D in Micro-Engineering at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland in 1983. From 1983-1984, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Health Science and Technology Division, a joint program of Harvard-MIT (USA). From 1984 to 2009, he was a faculty of the School of Engineering at Tufts University (USA). During his tenure at Tufts, from 1991 to 1992 he was a Visiting Professor at the Scheie Eye Research Institute of University of Pennsylvania (USA), from 1992 to 1994 he helped create and was the Vice-Director of the Eye Research Institute in Sion (Switzerland), in 2003 he helped establish the Biomedical Engineering (BME) Department at Tufts and from 2004 to 2009 he was a member of the Board of Directors then Executive Director of the Vietnam Education Foundation (VEF), a U.S. federal agency. In 2009, he went back to Vietnam to establish the BME Department at International University of Vietnam National Universities in HoChi Minh City and has been its Chair since. His research interests include Design and Applications of Medical Devices, Human Visual System, Ophthalmology, and Telemedicine. He is the (co)author of many scientific articles, books and patents of invention.

Dr. Trung Quoc Le is an Assistant Professor of Biomedical Engineering Department at International University - HCMC National University, Vietnam. He received his PhD's degree from Oklahoma State University. He was a Postdoctoral research associate of Industrial Systems Engineering and a Research scientist of Biomedical Engineering at Texas A&M University. He collaborates closely with cardiologists, sleep physician, health scientists, and researchers in biomedical engineering and industrial manufacturing engineering to perform his research in three complementary directions including 1) Data-driven and Sensor-based Modeling; 2) Medical Device Manufacturing and Bio-signal Processing; and 3) Predictive Analytics forPersonalized
