Dr. Charlie Demené
Physics for Medicine, ESPCI, Paris, France
Charlie Demené is an associate Professor at ESPCI PSL research University, and a researcher at Physics for Medicine Paris, France. After a PhD at the Institut Langevin on brain functional ultrasound (fUS) imaging (2015), he joined the Geneva University Hospital to develop transcranial cerebral ultrasound localization microscopy (2017). His major contributions to the field are now-widely used SVD-based spatiotemporal filtering techniques of ultrasonic images and the development of ultrafast ultrasound and fUS imaging for neonatal brain applications, with the first proofs of concept of cerebro-vascular resistivity mapping and fUS-based connectivity mapping. His current research interests spans ultrasound microvascular imaging and signal processing, brain functional imaging using ultrasound, ultrafast ultrasound localization microscopy and ultrasound bioeffects for sonogenetics and mechanotransduction.
