Jon Garibaldi received the B.Sc. (Hons) degree in Physics from Bristol University, UK in 1984, and the M.Sc. degree in Intelligent Systems and the Ph.D. degree in Uncertainty Handling in Immediate Neonatal Assessment from the University of Plymouth, UK in 1990 and 1997, respectively. Prof. Garibaldi is currently Head of School of Computer Science at the University of Nottingham, Head of the Intelligent Modelling and Analysis (IMA) Research Group, and Founding Director of the University of Nottingham Advanced Data Analysis Centre. His main research interest is in developing intelligent techniques to model human reasoning in uncertain environments, with a particular emphasis on the medical domain. Prof. Garibaldi has been the PI on EU and EPSRC projects worth over £3.5m, and CoI on a portfolio of grants worth over £80m. Prof. Garibaldi has published over 300 articles on fuzzy systems and intelligent data analysis, including over 100 journal papers and over 200 conference articles.
Prof. Garibaldi was the Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy Systems, the leading international journal in the field of fuzzy methods, from 2017-2022.
He was Publications Chair of FUZZ-IEEE 2007 and General Chair of the 2009 UK Workshop on Computational Intelligence, and has served regularly in the organising committees and programme committees of a range of leading international conferences and workshops, such as FUZZ-IEEE, WCCI, EURO and PPSN. He is a Fellow of the IEEE.
