Giacomo Nardi is an Associate Professor (Maître de Conférences) at INSA Rouen starting September 2025, holding a PhD in Mathematics from Sorbonne University. His research bridges mathematical analysis and biomedical image processing through extensive collaborations with the Institut Pasteur in Paris, focusing on developing advanced mathematical frameworks for biological imaging applications. His educational background includes: PhD in Mathematics, Sorbonne University (Pierre and Marie Curie), thesis: "On a characterization of the relaxation of a generalized Willmore functional" under supervisors S. Masnou and E. Mascolo. Nardi's work spans Biomedical Image Processing and Mathematical Analysis , evolving from foundational contributions in calculus of variations (Willmore functionals, BV functions) to cutting-edge biomedical applications. His current research employs topological data analysis and geometric methods to solve complex biological imaging problems including 3D segmentation of hematopoietic stem cells, receptor dynamics analysis, and retinal degeneration quantification. This interdisciplinary approach integrates deep mathematical theory with practical biological challenges through close partnerships with biologists at the Institut Pasteur. Analysis of his publication trajectory reveals a decisive shift toward biomedical applications since 2016, with recent work (2022-2025) dominating in high-impact imaging journals and conferences. His research consistently applies geometric measure theory and functional analysis to innovate in cellular dynamics modeling and 3D image segmentation, demonstrating exceptional versatility across pure mathematics and translational biomedical research. Nardi actively mentors the next generation of researchers: Postdoctoral supervision: Somoballi Ghoshal (2024-present, Institut Pasteur) on persistent homology-based 3D cell segmentation in cardiac tissue. PhD supervision: Benjamin Dorra (defense March 5, 2025, Medetia/Institut Pasteur) on AI-driven histopathology for ciliopathy models, resulting in ISBI 2024 award-winning publications. He co-develops the open-source Fshapestk (Functional shapes toolkit) and collaborates with J.-C. Olivo-Marin's Quantitative Image Analysis Unit at the Institut Pasteur, maintaining strong ties between theoretical mathematics and experimental biology through ongoing joint projects in cellular dynamics and tissue imaging.
