BRIEF BIOGRAPHY

Elsa Angelini received a B.S. degree in 1996 from the Ecole Centrale de Nantes (Nantes, France) with a major in automation and signal processing. She joined the Biomedical Engineering Department of Columbia University in 1997, and received a M.S. degree in 1998 and a Ph.D in 2003. She performed her doctoral research in the Biomedical Imaging Laboratory under the supervision of Dr. Andrew Laine and in collaboration with Dr. Homma and Dr. Holmes. She stayed at Columbia University as a post doctoral fellow until March 2004. She joined the Department of Image and Signal Processing, at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Télécommunications (Telecom ParisTech) in Paris as an associate professor in image processing with specific focus on medical imaging applications. She passed her Habilitation (HDR) in 2011.

Elsa Angelini has been on the program committee of the conference MICCAI’07-08-11, and on the organizing committee of the conferences MICCAI’08 and ISBI’08. She is since 2011 part of the Program Committee of the Conference SPIE Medical Imaging - Image Processing. She has been since 2007 a member of the Technical Committee on Medical Imaging and Image Processing of the IEEE EMBS Society and since 2011 a member of the Technical Committee on Bio Signal and Image Processing of the IEEE  SP Society.

She is the co-chair of the M2 Bioimaging specialty track of the international master of Biomedical Engineering BME-Paris (link).

Her research interests include:
  - Image and signal processing, wavelet theory, computer vision, computer graphics and scientific visualization.
  - Clinical applications related to multi-dimensional imaging modalities for denoising, enhancement and segmentation.
  - Assessment of image quality for different clinical protocols and diagnostic applications.
  - Quantification of anatomical structures and physiological functions and validation with clinical studies.
 - Anatomical modeling.
