Denis Fortun

Dr. Denis Fortun is a CNRS researcher at ICube Laboratory, affiliated with the IMAGeS team. He previously held postdoctoral positions at EPFL (Biomedical Imaging Group, 2014–2017) and visiting PhD roles at Institut Curie and University of Saarbrücken.

• Education:
  • PhD in Signal and Image Processing (2014), Inria Rennes
  • Master of Science (2010), University of Strasbourg
  • Master of Engineering (2010), Telecom Physique Strasbourg

His research focuses on inverse problems in image reconstruction, with applications to fluorescence microscopy, optical flow estimation, and MRI. He has pioneered methods for 3D isotropic resolution and motion/diffusion estimation in biomedical imaging.

Recent publications emphasize single particle reconstruction, multifocal excitation, and segmentation-free motion estimation, reflecting a trend toward computational imaging and super-resolution techniques.

• Scientific Awards:
  • Finalist for Best Student Paper Award, IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI), 2013
  • Best Paper Award, Colloque Reconnaissance de Forme et Intelligence Artificielle (RFIA), 2016

He has contributed to open-source software development (e.g., DeconvolutionLab2) and delivered invited talks at conferences like Applied Inverse Problems and ZEISS Symposium on Optics.
