David Thomas Delpy, CBE FRS FMedSci FREng [4] (born 11 August 1948), is a British bioengineer, and Hamamatsu Professor of Medical Photonics, at University College London. [1] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10]

Education

Delpy was educated at Heaton Grammar School in Newcastle. He went on to study at Brunel University, graduating with a first class Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Physics. He was awarded a Doctor of Science degree by University College London in Medical physics. [1]

Career and research

Delpy served as Chief Executive of the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council.[ when?] [3] [11] [12] [13]

As of 2014, he is chairman of the Defence Scientific Advisory Council [14] and a member of the strategic advisory board of the EPSRC's quantum technologies programme. [3]

Awards and honours

Delpy was appointed CBE in the 2014 Birthday Honours for services to engineering and scientific research. [15] He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS) in 1999. [1] He was also elected a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering [4] in 2002.

In 2008 he was awarded the Institute of Physics Rosalind Franklin Medal and Prize. [16]
