Associate Professor

Professional Summary

Mohamed Ghalwash is an Associate Professor of Artificial Intelligence at Ain Shams University / Zewail City of Science, Technology, and Innovation. Ghalwash is interested in developing machine learning and AI models for discovery of interpretable spatio-temporal patterns from complex events and exploiting their utilities in practical high impact real-world applications, focusing on analytics for healthcare, health behavior, decision support, and to support the generation of real world evidence from medical data, wearable devices and instrumented environments. He also has more than ten years of expertise in the software engineering industry, developing software that are currently being deployed, where he engaged in all phases of the project life cycle for the development of large business applications. My long-term goal is to put my footprints in the field of pattern recognition through contribution of original ideas and translating those ideas to end applications and products.
