Tuan
Pham received his PhD in 1995 from the University of New South Wales with a
thesis entitled “Fuzzy
Finite Element Analysis of Engineering Problems” which was the pioneering work
in the field and has attracted attention of researchers in engineering
computations. He has been an Associate Professor and appointed the Director of the
Bioinformatics Applications Research Centre at James Cook University.
His research
interests include image processing, molecular and medical image
analysis, pattern recognition, bioinformatics, biomedical informatics,
fuzzy-set algorithms, genetic algorithms, neural networks, geostatistics,
signal processing, fractals and chaos.
His research has been funded by the Australian Research Council,
academic institutions, and industry.
He has been
productively collaborating with Australian and international researchers across
the broad field of bioinformatics and biomedical informatics.
