JURANDIR NADAL é Professor Titular do Programa de Engenharia Biomédica da COPPE/UFRJ, graduado em Engenharia Elétrica pela Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro (1979), com Mestrado (1981) e Doutorado (1991) em Engenharia Biomédica pelo Institulo Alberto Luiz Coimbra de Pós-graduação e Pesquisa de Engenharia (COPPE) da Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ). Foi Presidente da Sociedade Brasileira de Engenharia Biomédica (2006-2008), Coordenador Científico do World Congress on Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering (RIO´94), Editor Responsável da Revista Brasileira de Engenharia Biomédica (1994-2006) e Coordenador do Programa de Engenharia Biomédica (1995-1997, 2010-2014). Atualmente é chefe do Laboratório de Engenharia Pulmonar e Cardiovascular. Atua na área de processamento de sinais biológicos, com particular interesse em sinais cardiovasculares (estratificação de risco de morte súbita cardíaca), pulmonares (ventilação mecânica e trocas gasosas) e biomecânicos (controle postural, marcha humana, eletromiografia e fadiga muscular).
JURANDIR NADAL received a bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1979, and both MSc and DSc degrees in Biomedical Engineering from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), in 1981 and 1991, respectively. He is a Full Professor in the Biomedical Engineering Program of the UFRJ, where he has been pursuing his academic career since 1985. Head of the Department during three two-year periods (1995-1997, 2010-2012 and 2012-2014), he served as Treasurer (1985-1987), Vice President (2000-2002), and President (2006-2008) of the Brazilian Society of Biomedical Engineering. He also acted as Scientific Chairman and Proceedings Editor of the World Congress on Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering (1994), and Editor in chief of the Brazilian Journal for Biomedical Engineering (1994-2004). Nadal is recipient of a Scholarship in Research Productivity level 1B, from the Brazilian Research Council ? CNPq. Since 2018, he is the head of the Carsiovascular and Pulmonar Engineering Lab. His research field is biomedical signal processing, with main interests in electrocardiographic methods for risk stratification of sudden cardiac arrest, pulmonar ventilation and biomechanics, including posture control, gait analysis, electromyography, and muscle fatigue.
