Personal profile

Biography

Dr. Chiew graduated from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, with a Bachelor of Engineering Mechanical-Automotive and a Masters of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering. He obtained his PhD at the University of Canterbury (UC), New Zealand investigating into model-based mechanical ventilation for patients with respiratory failure. After graduation, he works as a postdoctoral fellow at Centre for Bioengineering at UC, in a range of research including leadership of a large randomized controlled trial. He is currently a lecturer in Monash University Malaysia, pioneering model-based clinical mechanical ventilation trial in a local hospital as well as hospital in Singapore. His work spans from the development of physiological models, model development, algorithm and system identification methods, and the creation of unique clinical decision metrics, to conducting clinical and animal trials.
