Jeffrey Anderson

Jeffrey Anderson earned his Ph.D. in electrical and computer engineering from the University of Wyoming in 2004, where his research emphasized image segmentation of objects in serial sectioned images. He also holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Utah. Anderson has worked on a closed-loop controller for mechanical ventilation of patients with adult respiratory distress syndrome and a servo lung simulator with a related control method that was awarded a U.S. patent. He is a registered professional engineer in Wyoming, a member of IEEE and Tau Beta Pi, and has taught mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering courses for nearly two decades.
