Jonathon Chambers (S'83-M'90-SM'98-F'11) received the Ph.D. and D.Sc. degrees in signal processing from the Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine (Imperial College London), London, U.K., in 1990 and 2014, respectively. From 1991 to 1994, he was a Research Scientist with the Schlumberger Cambridge Research Center, Cambridge, U.K. In 1994, he returned to Imperial College London as a Lecturer in signal processing and was promoted to Reader (Associate Professor) in 1998. From 2001 to 2004, he was the Director of the Center for Digital Signal Processing and a Professor of signal processing with the Division of Engineering, King's College London. From 2004 to 2007, he was a Cardiff Professorial Research Fellow with the School of Engineering, Cardiff University, Cardiff, U.K. Between 2007-2014, he led the Advanced Signal Processing Group, within the School of Electronic, Electrical and Systems Engineering at Loughborough University and is now a Visiting Professor. In 2015, he joined the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Newcastle University, where he was Professor of signal and information processing and led the ComS2IP group and is now a Visiting Professor. In 2017 he became the Head of the Department of Engineering at the University of Leicester.  He is also an International Honorary Dean and Guest Professor at Harbin Engineering University, China with support from the 1000 Talents Scheme. He is co-author of the books Recurrent Neural Networks for Prediction: Learning Algorithms, Architectures and Stability (New York, NY, USA:Wiley, 2001) and EEG Signal Processing (New York, NY, USA: Wiley, 2007). He has advised approaching 100 researchers through to Ph.D. graduation and published more than 600 conference papers and journal articles, many of which are in IEEE journals. His research interests include adaptive and blind signal processing and their applications.

Dr. Chambers is a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, U.K., and the Institution of Electrical Engineers. He was the Technical Program Chair of the 15th International Conference on Digital Signal Processing and the 2009 IEEE Workshop on Statistical Signal Processing, both held in Cardiff, U.K., and a Technical Program Cochair for the 36th IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, Prague, Czech Republic. He received the first QinetiQ Visiting Fellowship in 2007 for his outstanding contributions to adaptive signal processing and his contributions to QinetiQ, as a result of his successful industrial collaboration with the international defense systems company QinetiQ. He has served on the IEEE Signal Processing Theory and Methods Technical Committee for six years and the IEEE Signal Processing Society Awards Board for three years. He also served as a member of the IEEE Signal Processing Conference Board and the European Signal Processing Society Best Paper Awards Selection Panel. He additionally served as an Associate Editor for the IEEE TRANSACTIONS ONSIGNALPROCESSING for three terms over the periods 1997-1999, 2004-2007, and as a Senior Area Editor between 2011-2014.
