His research area is in the continuous and discrete-time analog filtering, including fractional-order filters, companding filters, current amplifier filters, CCII and CFOA filters, and sampled-data filters, and in the development of ultra-low voltage building blocks for biomedical applications. He serves as Area Editor of the International Journal of Electronics and Communications (AEU) Journal, and Associate Editor of the Circuits Systems and Signal Processing Journal. He is member of the Editorial Board of the Analog Integrated Circuits andSignal Processing Journal, and Microelectronics Journal. He is also an IEEE Senior Member. Ahmed Elwakil   was born in Cairo, Egypt. He received the B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees from the Department of Electronics and Communications at Cairo University, Cairo, Egypt and the Ph.D. degree from the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, National University of Ireland, University College Dublin.  His research interests are primarily in the areas of Circuit Theory, Nonlinear Dynamics, Chaos Theory, as well as Fractional-Order Circuits and Systems with diverse applications ranging from the modeling of oscillatory networks and nonlinear electronic circuits to energy devices and bio-materials. He is the author and co-author of over 185 publications in these areas. He has served as a reviewer, review committee member and organizing committee member for many conferences including ISCAS, NOLTA, ICECS, ECCTD, ICM, NDES and ISSPA and currently serves as an Associate Editor for the Int. J. of Circuit Theory and Applications (Wiley) and was a past Editor of this journal. He is also an Associate Editor of the Int. J. Bifurcation & Chaos, (World Scientific) and the Journal of Nonlinear Theory and its Applications (NOLTA), published by the Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers of Japan (IEICE-Japan) and was a past Associate Editor for the J. of Dynamics of Continuous, Discrete and Impulsive Systems: Series-B, published by the American Institute of Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) and is currently on the Editorial Board of the IEEE J. Emerging and Selected Topics in Circuits and Systems. Prof. Elwakil has been a member of the IEEE Technical Committee on Nonlinear Circuits and Systems (TCNCAS) since 2003 and was a Lead Guest Editor for the IEEE J. of Emerging and Selected Topics in Circuits & Systems, special issue on fractional-order circuits and systems (Sep. 2013) and a Guest Editor for a special issue on Chaos-Fractals Theories and Applications published in the J. of Mathematical Problems in Engineering, 2014. He is also the guest editor for a special issue on Fractional-Order Circuits (June 2016) in the J. Circuits Systems & Signal Processing (Springer).
