Meet Our People

The unique vision and interdisciplinarity of KAUST make it the most exciting place for research on visually understanding massive data, whether from neuroscience, materials science, computational fluid dynamics, mathematical physics, neural networks, or other areas. My research is in visualization, and few have said it as well as John Tukey: "The greatest value of a picture is when it forces us to notice what we never expected to see." (Exploratory Data Analysis, 1977)

Markus Hadwiger Associate Professor CS

Virtual reality is an alternative reality no more. With my work on visualization tools for artificial intelligence and machine learning, I challenge the greatest ally to empower society with new knowledge for a smarter and secure world.
Bernard Ghanem Associate Professor EE

While we, humans, are the creators of powerful machines that can perceive the world the way we do, we have absolutely no idea why these machines work so effectively. I try to make a small dent in this grand question.
Adel Bibi PhD Student, EE

When you see what is here at KAUST there is a massive scope for personal development, what were ideas before I have been actually able to realize them here at KAUST that was not possible in other places where I have worked.
Wolfgang Heidrich KAUST News - Using science to push the boundaries of photography

Learn, research, share, apply, help, and repeat to have an impact!
I am a curios scholar with an appetite for learning. I want to understand the world around me and be at the forefront of the unknown. Moreover, I am fully dedicated to fulfilling my duty of passing on knowledge to future generations.
Modar Alfadly PhD Student, CS
