Professor
Christian Heinrich is a Professor at the University of Strasbourg, affiliated with the ICube - IMAGeS team (Images, Modeling, Learning, Geometry and Statistics). His research focuses on signal processing, inverse problems, machine learning, and optical imaging, particularly polarimetric imaging and biological tissue analysis. He collaborates closely with Jihad Zallat (ICube-TRIO) and has contributed to the development of methodologies for medical imaging and computational neuroscience. Education: Electrical Engineering (Supélec, 1990), Master's in Signal Processing (Université Paris-Sud/Supélec, 1994), PhD in Signal Processing (Université Paris-Sud/Supélec, 1997), Aggregation in Applied Physics (1998), Habilitation (University of Strasbourg, 2008) His research spans polarimetric imaging techniques for tumor monitoring, brain connectivity analysis through multimodal MRI and fMRI, and advanced image processing methods like non-local means filtering and spatial mixture models. Recent work explores cryo-EM reconstruction, topological preservation in surgical planning, and uncertainty quantification in medical imaging. Christian Heinrich co-leads the IRIV master’s degree (Imaging, Robotics, and Engineering for the Living) and the Franco-German DaSAI double degree program in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence. He has published extensively in journals like Biomedical Optics Express , IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering , and Medical Image Analysis .
