Jocelyne Troccaz

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jocelyne Troccaz (born 1959)[1][2] is a French roboticist and researcher in medical imaging and image-guided robotics.[3] She is a director of research for the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), affiliated with the Computer-Assisted Medical Interventions team (GMCAO) of the Laboratory for Translational Research and Innovation in Medicine and Complexity (TIMC) at Grenoble Alpes University.[4] After originally specializing in industrial applications of robotics, her interests shifted to medical robotics.[3]

Education and career

[edit]

Troccaz was born on 11 June 1959 in Sallanches, an Alpine town near the French borders with Italy and Switzerland.[1] She studied computer science at the Grenoble Institute of Technology, earned licentiates in 1980 and 1981, a diplôme d'études approfondies (master's degree) in 1982, and a doctorate in 1986. She completed her habilitation in computer science and applied mathematics in 1993.[1]

She joined CNRS in 1988 and became a director of research in 1998, in 2017 being listed as an exceptional-class director of research.[1]

Recognition

[edit]

Troccaz was named a Fellow of the Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention Society (MICCAI) in 2010, "for scientific contributions to computer-aided surgery and medical robotics and for promotion of the field through involvement in the MICCAI Society and related professional societies".[5] She was named an IEEE Fellow in 2018, "for contributions to robotics and imaging for medical applications".[6]

She was given the Academy Prize of the Académie nationale de chirurgie, and named as a free member of the academy, in 2014.[7] She was given the CNRS Silver Medal in 2015, and named to the Legion of Honour in 2016.[3]

In 2022 she received the MICCAI Society Enduring Impact award[8] and was appointed to the French Academy of Sciences.[9]
