Luis Ibáñez received a B.Sc. in Physics from the Universidad
Industrial de Santander (Bucaramanga, Colombia) in 1989 and
a M.Sc. in Optics from the same university in 1994. He received a
D.E.A and Ph.D. degrees from the Universite de Rennes I
(Rennes, France) in 1995 and 2000 respectively.
During his Ph.D., Luis Ibáñez was member of the LATIM laboratory
at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Telecommunications de Bretagne
(Brest, France) and was interested in the segmentation of bone joint
structures of the limbs for the purpose of studying the relationship
between morphology and functionality. He also participated in a project
for developing collaborative virtual environments for medical applications.
In 1999 Luis Ibáñez joined the Division of Neurosurgery of the Univesity
of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and participated as a member of the MIDAG
and CADDLab groups. His activity at UNC-CH was related with the development
of algorithms for 3D/2D registration applied to image guided surgery. He also
participated as developer of the INSIGHT Registration and Segmentation Toolkit
sponsored by the National Library of Medicine.
Luis Ibáñez joined Kitware Inc. in February 2002. His current interests include:
medical image processing and analysis, image registration, shape description,
morphogenesis modeling and application of genomics paradigms for computation.
He is member of the following societies
IEEE-EMBS and IEEE-Computer Societies since 1995.
American Association for the Advancement of Science since 2003.
MICCAI Society since 2005
