Ingénieur de recherche en imagerie médicale
In the realm of modern neuroscience, the convergence of advanced imaging techniques and computational prowess has unlocked unprecedented insights into the complexities of the human brain. At the forefront of this revolution, I stand as a visionary research engineer whose pioneering work in neuroimaging techniques, coupled with groundbreaking contributions to imaging processing software and programming, propelled the field forward into new frontiers of understanding and discovery.
Academic background
After obtaining a degree in Biomedical Engineering in 2017, I continued my studies by further specializing in the fields of biophysics, radio-physics, and medical imaging. In 2019, I earned a research master’s degree in this discipline, thus consolidating my expertise in the most advanced medical imaging technologies. Determined to deepen their knowledge and make significant contributions to the field, I pursued doctoral studies in biophysics, radio-physics, and medical imaging, with a specialization in medical imaging, at the University of Tunis El-Manar.
Previous Experiences
During my previous experiences, I gained extensive expertise in various modalities of medical imaging, including Radiography (X-rays, CT scans, etc.), MRI (functional, diffusion, perfusion ASL), PET (Positron Emission Tomography), and Spectroscopy. By working with these diverse modalities, I developed a deep understanding of the underlying principles of each technique, as well as practical skills for setting up and optimizing imaging protocols.
Contribution to Protocol Implementation
As an active member of various research and development projects, I played a key role in implementing imaging protocols for different modalities of medical imaging. My expertise was invaluable in designing and optimizing image acquisition protocols, thus ensuring high-quality data for accurate and reliable interpretation.
Imaging Data Processing
Following the acquisition of imaging data, I was involved in processing and analyzing the data using various imaging processing software and programming languages. My mastery of programming languages such as MATLAB, Python, FSL, and C++ enabled me to develop efficient and customized imaging processing pipelines tailored to the specific needs of each project.
