Saqib Salahuddin received his BSc degree in Computer Engineering from COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Abbottabad, Pakistan (with High Honours) in 2007 and his MSc degree in Microelectronics Systems Design from the University of Southampton, United Kingdom in 2009. He is currently working towards his PhD at National University of Ireland, Galway, Ireland. She has been with the Translational Medical Device Laboratory at National University of Ireland Galway since 2014.

He was Lecturer in Electrical Engineering Department at COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Lahore, Pakistan from 2007 to 2014 and a research member of COMVIS (Computer Vision Research Group) from 2011 to 2014. His research interests include Embedded Systems, Robotic Vision, Optimization Algorithms, and electromagnetics. He works on dielectric metrology of biological tissues.

Saqib Salahuddin is an active member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the MiMed TD1301 Cost Action (Accelerating the Technological, Clinical and Commercialisation Progress in the Area of Medical Microwave Imaging), and the EMF-MED BM1309 Cost Action (European network for innovative uses of EMFs in biomedical applications).
