José Azaña

José Azãna was born on December 8, 1972, in Toledo, Spain. He received the Ingeniero de Telecomunicación degree (a six-year engineering program) and the Ph.D. degree (in the areas of optical signal processing and fiber Bragg gratings) from the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) in 1997 and 2001, respectively. He completed part of his Ph.D. work at the University of Toronto, Canada, and University of California, Davis, USA. From September 2001 to mid 2003, he worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, McGill University, Montreal, Canada. Recently, he joined the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS), Montreal, where he is an Assistant Research Professor in the Ultrafast Optical Processing Group. The research work of Dr. Azãna has resulted in more than 45 publications in top scientific and engineering journals and it has been recognized with several distinctions in Spain and Canada. His current research interests focus on fiber and integrated technologies for ultrafast optical signal processing and optical pulse shaping, for various applications, including optical telecommunications, ultrafast metrology, biomedical imaging, and microwave waveform manipulation.
