Towards a Global Knowledge Network of Virtual & Augmented Reality Technologies in Computer Games.

Prof. Manolya Kavakli (Macquarie University, Australia). Invitée par Rémy Casanova.

Vous êtes les bienvenus pour assister à ce séminaire de l'ISM, qui débutera à 14h, en Salle des thèses (A1.04) de la Faculté des Sciences du Sport de Luminy, Marseille.

N'hésitez plus, venez : c'est ouvert à tous !

Manolya Kavakli has been working in Human Computer Interaction (HCI) for more than 30 years, with a specific focus on Virtual Reality since 2003. Her research involves the use of motion tracking, virtual and augmented reality technologies in the development of training simulations and improvement of human performance and expertise. She is the Director of the Virtual Reality Lab located at the Simulation Hub of Macquarie University. She took a Professorial role as the Academic Director of AIE (Academy of Interactive Entertainment) Institute in August 2018, reducing her involvement at Macquarie University to a research only position. Academic Directorship role at AIE institute primarily involves establishing new educational programs as well as industry-based research labs targeting the development of undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in game development including game art, design, and programming. Shewill talk about her research projects, internships and researcher exchange.

Biosketch: Prof M. Kavakli gained her M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in 1990 and 1995 from Istanbul Technical University and was awarded a NATO Science Fellowship in 1996 for postdoctoral research. In 1998 she received a Postdoctoral Fellowship from the University of Sydney, Australia. Until 1999 she worked as an Associate Professor at Faculty of Architecture, Istanbul Technical University. In 2000, she started lecturing in IT at the School of Information Technology, Charles Sturt University and became the Acting Course Coordinator of the Bachelor of Computer Science (Games Technology) degree which was the first of its kind in Australia. In 2003, she became a Senior Lecturer at Department of Computing, Macquarie University, and established the Virtual Reality Lab. She is the founding member of VISOR (Virtual and Interactive Simulations of Reality Research Group) and a member of CEPET (Research Centre for Elite Performance, Expertise, and Training).

Computational Biomechanics and Mechanobiology

Jérôme Noailly (Barcelona Centre for New Medical Technologies). Invité par Jean-Louis Milan.

Jérôme Noailly is principal investigator of the Multiscale and Computational Biomechanics and Mechanobiology (MBIOMM) group (2014-SGR-1616). As a member of the Department of Information and Communication Technologies and SIMBIOSys group at UPF, he generated synergies to integrate medical image analysis and machine learning dimensions into the MBIOMM activities. At the same time, he was consolidating the combination of computational systems biology approaches and biomechanical /multiphysics modelling, for multiscale explorations of tissues and organs, in health and disease. In 2016, Jérôme was awarded a Ramon y Cajal fellowship (RYC-2015-18888) from the Spanish government, and he is currently the Principal Investigator of the Biomechanics and Mechanobiology Area of the Barcelona Centre for New Medical Technologies (BCN MedTech - 2017-SGR-1386).
