Meet our faculty
Dr. Youry Khmelevsky
I have been a Professor in the Computer Science Department at °ÍÀè·èÂíÐã since 2005, with extensive experience in teaching, research, and academic leadership. I served as Chair of the Department from 2015 to 2018 and resumed the role in 2020. Additionally, I have been the Chair of the Research Ethics Board since 2021 (term ending in August 2025) and an active member of several academic committees, contributing to institutional governance and policy development.
I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science and a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering and Microelectronics, graduating with distinction and a GPA of 99%. I completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard University in 1997 and held visiting scientist roles at:
- MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) (2010–2011)
- LIP6, Sorbonne University, Paris, France (2018–2019)
My research spans data systems, artificial intelligence, software engineering, and health informatics, with a strong record of impactful contributions. My team received the Best Conference Research Paper Awards in 2014 and 2023, highlighting the significance of our work.
I am dedicated to fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and mentoring future researchers. My Canadian and international experience equips me to make meaningful contributions to academia.
