He received the PhD degree in signal processing and telecommunications from University of Rennes 1 in 1995. From 1995 to 1997, he was an INRIA (French National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control) expert-engineer in the TEMIS research group (IRISA/INRIA Rennes, France). In 1997, he was appointed at INRA (French National Institute for Research in Agronomy) in the MIA - Applied Mathematics and Computer Science Department as a full-time research scientist in Jouy-en-Josas, France. Since September 2003 he is on INRIA secondment (INRIA Rennes - Bretagne Atlantique, France). Since 01/01/2010, he is head of the SERPICO (Space-TimE RePresentation, Imaging and cellular dynamics of molecular COmplexes) Team (INRIA Rennes - Bretagne Atlantique) in collaboration with Institut Curie (UMR 144 Cnrs, Paris), France.
