Prof. Frangi is Professor of Biomedical Image Computing at the University of Sheffield (USFD), UK. As of September 2012, he is on unpaid license as Associate Professor at Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF) and ICREA-Academia Researcher. He currently leads the Center for Computational Imaging & Simulation Technologies in Biomedicine, a joint lab between USFD and UPF in collaboration with Professor Vicent Caselles (UPF). CISTIB is part of INSIGNEO Institute for in silico Medicine, a joint initiative between USFD and the Sheffield Teaching Hospitals Foundation Trust to realise the scientific ambition behind the Virtual Physiological Human (VPH), producing a transformational impact on healthcare. His main research interests are in medical image computing, medical imaging and image-based computational physiology.
