Constantino Reyes-Aldasoro

Constantino Reyes-Aldasoro is a Senior Lecturer in Biomedical Image Analysis at the Department of Computer Science, School of Mathematics, Computer Science and Engineering, City, University of London. His research focuses on the analysis, interpretation, and visualization of biomedical data, particularly in the context of cancer, inflammation, and neurodegenerative diseases.

• PhD in Computer Science – University of Warwick (2004)
• MSc in Electrical Engineering – Imperial College London (1994)
• Bachelor’s in Mechanical and Electrical Engineering – Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (1993)

His research spans image analysis, machine learning, and computational modeling applied to biomedical imaging, with emphasis on electron microscopy, histopathology, and radiology. He has developed algorithms for cell segmentation, vessel tracing, and tumor microenvironment analysis, contributing significantly to open-source tools in the field.

His recent publications show a strong trend toward integrating deep learning with traditional image analysis, especially in cancer diagnostics and Alzheimer’s disease assessment. He has also explored topological data analysis and persistent homology for evaluating dataset consistency in colorectal cancer research.

• Senior Member, IEEE
• Member Level 1, Sistema Nacional de Investigadores CONACYT (Mexico)

He has supervised multiple PhD students in areas such as HeLa cell analysis, coronary plaque detection, and Alzheimer’s imaging. He has secured grants from the Leverhulme Trust, Australian Research Council, and Cancer Research UK. He is an academic editor for journals including PLOS ONE and Journal of Imaging, and has chaired conferences like MIUA and BMVA. He is part of the giCentre research group at City, and actively promotes interdisciplinary collaboration in AI for healthcare.
