Samuel Beuret
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
BioI received the B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Lausanne, Switzerland, in 2016, 2019, and 2024, respectively. After working as an Ultrasound Engineer at E-Scopics, Aix-en-Provence, France, I joined the Ultrasound Imaging and Instrumentation Lab of the Department of Radiology as a Postdoctoral Scholar in 2025. My research interests include signal processing, inverse problems, and probabilistic modeling applied to pulse-echo ultrasound imaging. My current work focuses on improving pulse-echo speed-of-sound imaging and distributed aberration correction.

Carlos Castillo Passi
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiological Sciences Laboratory
BioCarlos Castillo-Passi began his academic journey at Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile (PUC), where he earned both a degree and an MSc in Electrical Engineering in 2018. He then pursued a PhD in Biological and Medical Engineering through a joint program between PUC and King’s College London (KCL), completing it with maximum distinction in 2024. His research focused on the design of low-field cardiac MRI sequences using open-source MRI simulations. In 2023, his work on open-source MRI simulations was highlighted by the editor of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (MRM). Furthermore, his application of this work to low-field cardiac MRI earned him the Early Career Award in Basic Science from the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) in 2024. In addition to his research, Carlos is an active member of JuliaHealth, contributing to the development of high-performance, reproducible tools for health and medicine. In 2025, he joined Stanford University as a postdoctoral researcher, where he continues his work in cardiac MRI and open-source technologies.
