I moved from EPFL (Lausanne, Switzerland) to Duke University (Durham, North Carolina). Now I'm getting used to living in the US ;-)

Short Biography
Vincent Jacquemet was born in Sion, Switzerland. He received his Master degree in Physics from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, in April 2000, with the second best overall grade in the university (Alumni Association's award). His diploma work focused on the theoretical analysis of a statistical model of mass aggregation.

In 2000, he joined the Signal Processing Institute (ITS) at EPFL, where he worked on computer modeling of the electrical activity of the heart in the LausanneHeart group. In June 2004, he received his Ph.D. degree for a thesis entitled "A Biophysical Model of Atrial Fibrillation and Electrograms: Formulation, Validation and Applications". Then, he worked as a postdoc researcher in the LausanneHeart group at the EPFL and the Lausanne University Hospital.

In February 2007, he joined the Computational Electrophysiology Lab at Duke University with a "fellowship for advanced researcher" from the Swiss National Science Foundation in order to work on a research project entitled "Modeling cardiac fibrosis and its relation to arrhythmogenicity".

Research Interests
