Fernando Zvietcovich, BSc in Electrical Engineering, MSc in Digital Image and Signal Processing (Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Peru), and PhD in Electrical Engineering (University of Rochester, NY, USA), has recently joined the VioBio Lab at the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC, Madrid) within the framework of the IMCUSTOMEYE project funded by the European Commission's Horizon 2020 Programme. Fernando’s research includes novel wave-based optical coherence elastography methods in soft tissues for the diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of diseases in clinical environments. Fernando was the past holder of the 2020 SPIE-Franz Hillenkamp Postdoctoral Fellowship in Problem-Driven Biomedical Optics and Analytics. Fernando also worked at VioBio-CSIC on translating optical coherence elastography, developed and designed for the non-invasive quantification of corneal spatial biomechanical properties in 3D, into the in vivo clinical use for human ocular disease diagnostics. Now he is currently an assistant professor at the Bioengineering Section from the Department of Engineering at Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Peru (Lima, Peru).
