Philippe Forero

I completed my master's thesis at .NeuroRestore, CHUV, Lausanne, Switzerland, where I developed high-fidelity visualization tools for personalized computational models of patients' spinal cords under the supervision of Professor Grégoire Courtine and Dr. Gregory Dumont. I am continuing the project as a research assistant with Sergio Charpak.

Data Science Intern at Rolex SA, Switzerland, where I worked on identifying commercial references from photos and conducted research on optimizing training datasets using Dataiku DSS.

MSc in Robotics and Neuroprosthetics at EPFL, Switzerland. I worked on a sensorized spider web for a semester project at the CREATE Lab under the supervision of professor Josie Hughes and Shiv Katiyar.

I worked on a computational neuroscience project titled Matching of Neurons Within Animals in Fluorescence Microscopy Data, which was part of a semester project at the Neuroengineering Laboratory. This project was conducted under the supervision of Professor Pavan P. Ramdya and Femke Hurtak.

I worked on several academic projects, including using the Thymio robot for vision modules and shortest path planning, as well as navigating an obstacle course with the Crazyflie drone. I also simulated various systems for control purposes, such as the Salamander Robotica, Atlas, and A1-Unitree robots. Additionally, I developed an insertion tool for a visual prosthesis designed for patients suffering from glaucoma.

BSc in Microengineering at EPFL, Switzerland. I participated in the Horological Competition where I built a mechanical clock from scratch.
