Position:
- Post Doctoral Research Fellow, CSIRO, ICT
Credentials:
- PhD, medical image processing at University of Quebec, Ecole de technology superieure
Biography:
Dr Rivest-Hénault received his B.Eng. with highest honours in automation engineering from University of Quebec’s École de technologie supérieure, Montreal, in 2005.
He then joined the Synchromedia Laboratory for multimedia communication in telepresence with scholarships from both NSERC and FQRNT, and received his Ph.D. with highest honours in 2012.
He was a visiting researcher at Siemens Corporate Research, Princeton, NJ, in 2010, and a software expert in a computer vision startup, C-Tec, Laval, Québec (2004-2010).
Dr Rivest-Hénault is now a Postdoctoral Fellow at CSIRO, The Australian e-Health Research Centre, Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital, where he is working on imaging methods for MR-based planning and adaptive prostate radiation therapy.
