About

I work on signal and image processing for computational biomedical imaging, with a focus on inverse problems in ultrasound.

My research covers deconvolution, super-resolution, compressive sampling, beamforming, image registration and fusion, applied to ultrasound image formation, ultrasound elastography, cardiac ultrasound, passive cavitation imaging, quantitative acoustic microscopy, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.

I received the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in signal and image processing from INSA Lyon in 2005 and 2008, and the habilitation (HDR) from the University of Toulouse in 2016. From 2009 to 2021 I was assistant professor, then associate professor (from 2016), at Université Paul Sabatier Toulouse 3 and a member of the IRIT laboratory (UMR CNRS 5505), where I proposed and led the MINDS team (Computational Imaging and Vision) from 2017 to 2021. Since 2021 I have been a full professor at Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1 and a member of CREATIS (UMR CNRS 5220). I am an IEEE Senior Member.
