Jorge Lazo

Bio

Jorge studied Mechatronics Engineering at the National Polytechnic Institute of Mexico (IPN) and Physics at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM). He continued with his Master of Science (M. Sc.) in Physics, Biological Physics and Computational Biology at Lund University, Sweden.

He obtained his M. Sc. degree in 2019 working in an interdisciplinary project, under the guidance of Prof. Mattias Ohlsson at the department of Computational Biology and Biological Physics of LU, analyzing multi-spectral airborne data to detect archaeological ruins using Computer Vision and Deep Learning methods.

Jorge is currently at The Department of Electronics, Information and Bioengineering (DEIB) of Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI) for a joint Ph. D. along with Université de Strasbourg (UNISTRA), as Early Stage Researcher in the Marie Curie ATLAS project under the European Union Innovative Training Network.
