السيرة الذاتية
Dr. Abdelkader Baggag is a Senior Scientist at the Qatar Computing Research Institute. He has a joint appointment as an Associate Professor at Hamad Bin Khalifa University in the Division of Information and Computing Technology, where he teaches “Learning From Data” which is an advanced course on Machine Learning. He completed his PhD in Computer Science from the University of Minnesota. Among the positions Dr. Baggag held prior to joining QCRI is Associate Professor at Laval University in Canada (tenured), and Assistant Professor at McGill University where he established a curriculum in HPC at the consortium on high-performance computing in Quebec, CLUMEQ, funded by the Canadian Foundation for Innovation; and he lead the scientific activities of CLUMEQ by taking on the mission of facilitating the use of parallel computing for the large CLUMEQ constituency. Prior to that, Dr. Baggag was a research fellow at NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, USA.
