Blind and non-blind inverse problems in imaging.
Fluorescence microscopy.

PhD thesis prize

My PhD project was awarded by l'Académie des Sciences Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres.

I received the math/computer science award for my thesis. This prize distinguish thesis in the area around Toulouse.

New position

Since September 2021, I joined the SADA group lead by Ivan Dokmanić in Basel. I'm now working on exciting new projects mixing signal processing, manifold, graphs and (of course) learning. All with interesting applications in cryo-electron microscopy!

PhD defense

I successfully defended my PhD thesis in December 2020. Slides can be found here, and the manuscript here.

Kerialis prize

My PhD project was selected to receive the Kerialis prize in 2018. I received 3000€ to support my travels to conferences and workshops.

PhD Student at ITAV

From October 2017 I have been working on my PhD thesis under the supervision of Pierre Weiss and Thomas Mangeat.

My project aims to develop new methods to correct non-stationary blur from microscopy images. I am particularly interested in blind-deconvolution, inverse problems, machine learning. My motivations lie both on theoretical and applied questions.

This PhD thesis is supported by the Fondation pour la Recherche Médicale, FRM grant number ECO20170637521.
