Dimitri Van De Ville is a Full Professor of Bioengineering at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) and the University of Geneva (UniGE), affiliated with the School of Engineering at EPFL and the Faculty of Medicine at UniGE. He leads the Medical Image Processing Laboratory (MIP:Lab) at Campus Biotech in Geneva and is a key figure at the CIBM Center for Biomedical Imaging. His work bridges signal processing, computational neuroscience, and clinical neuroimaging. Education: M.S. and Ph.D. in Computer Science, Ghent University, Belgium (1998, 2002) Post-doctoral Fellow, Biomedical Imaging Group, EPFL (2002–2005) His research focuses on advancing non-invasive brain imaging through methodological innovations in signal and image processing. He investigates the dynamic and network aspects of brain function using fMRI and EEG, with a special emphasis on dynamic functional connectivity, graph signal processing, and real-time neurofeedback. His work has demonstrated that EEG microstate sequences exhibit scale-free dynamics, linking fast electrophysiological events to slow hemodynamic changes. He pioneered connectivity decoding and contributed to the development of sparsity-based deconvolution methods for fMRI. The recent articles reflect a strong trend toward modeling brain function as a dynamic network process. Key themes include graph signal processing on brain connectomes, decomposition of transient brain activity, and the use of machine learning to decode brain states. His work increasingly integrates structural and functional data to understand brain organization at multiple scales. Scientific Awards: Technical Achievement Award, IEEE EMBS (2024) Fellow, EURASIP (2023) Distinguished Lecturer, IEEE Signal Processing Society (2021–2022) Fellow, IEEE (2020) Leenaards Award (2016) NARSAD Independent Investigator Award (2014) NeuroImage Editors' Choice Award (2013) Pfizer Research Award (2012) Van De Ville has secured substantial research funding through grants such as the SNSF Professorship and has advised numerous researchers. He plays a major role in the scientific community as founding chair of the EURASIP BISA SAT and former chair of the IEEE BISP TC. He has held editorial roles in top journals including IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing , SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences , and Imaging Neuroscience . He leads the Medical Image Processing Laboratory (MIP:Lab) at Campus Biotech, which specializes in developing advanced signal processing tools for neuroimaging. The lab is part of a broader collaborative ecosystem involving EPFL, UniGE, and the CIBM, fostering interdisciplinary research in biomedical imaging and brain science.
