The Faculty of Engineering welcomed two new professors this Spring and Fall:
听
Electrical and Computer Engineering
Jessie Galasso-Carbonnel
Assistant Professor
Prof. Jessie Galasso-Carbonnel鈥檚 research focuses on extracting knowledge from existing software systems to support software maintenance and evolution. She relies on knowledge discovery techniques with strong mathematical foundations to design verifiable and reproducible approaches.
She received her Ph.D. in Computer Science from l'Universit茅 de Montpellier (France) in 2018. Prior to joining 成人VR视频, she was a Postdoctoral Fellow at l'Universit茅 de Montr茅al.
Areas of research: Software engineering and reverse-engineering, knowledge extraction and representation
Courses you teach/will be teaching: Introduction to Software Engineering
Things you鈥檙e excited to get started at 成人VR视频: Mentoring and working with students. Building a welcoming research group.
Research/career highlight you鈥檙e most proud of: When my previous students contact me to tell me about their achievements. That鈥檚 when I truly feel that I have an impact.
Last book you read: The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin
What鈥檚 on your work/research/lab playlists? Music from video games! A lot of them are designed to keep you motivated without breaking your concentration.

Mechanical Engineering
Guillaume Durandau
Assistant Professor
Prof. Guillaume Durandau is interested in interfacing humans and robots for rehabilitation, and his work focuses on creating virtual humans though neuromusculoskeletal system simulations.
He obtained a Ph.D. from the University of Twente (Netherlands), a Master鈥檚 from l'Universit茅 de Sherbrooke (Canada), and an Engineering Diploma at ISEN Toulon (France).
Areas of research: Biomechanics and wearable robotics
Courses you teach/will be teaching: MECH 220: Mechanics 2
Things you鈥檙e excited to get started at 成人VR视频: Starting my own lab on one of the most beautiful campuses in Canada
Research/career highlight you鈥檙e most proud of: Seeing patients get excited about using a new prosthesis/exoskeleton
Favourite aspect of your work: Talking about research
Last place you lived: Enschede, the Netherlands
Something you like to do during your time off: Walking with my dog (see picture on below)
What鈥檚 something you can鈥檛 live without? The cuteness of my dog (see picture below)
What鈥檚 on your work/research/lab playlists? Supertramp, Queen, Pink Floyd
