Dr Kamel Madi
Kamel Madi is the co-founder of 3Dmagination. He graduated from Mines ParisTech with a PhD in Materials Science & Engineering (2003-2006). During this period, he was introduced to the exciting world of X-ray CT imaging by Pr Jean-Yves Buffiere and taught computational homogenization methods by Pr Samuel Forest in collaboration with Dr Michel Boussuge and Saint-Gobain CREE. He has more than 10 years teaching and research experience during which he has acquired solid methods in the fields of 3D imaging, mechanics of materials and manufacturing process in both academia (Mines ParisTech, University of Portsmouth, University of Manchester) and industry (Saint-Gobain group, Corning group), and in diverse areas such as glass industry and healthcare. In March 2010, he took the decision to dedicate his skills to biomedical applications and more particularly to the field of orthopaedic biomechanics. Since then, his objectives have been to investigate how implants, tissues and cells respond to mechanical forces and the role of mechanics in disease and repair, through a combination of 3D confocal & CT imaging, in situ mechanical testing and image-based modelling. He is a STEM ambassador and enjoys doing STEM outreach activities for students of all ages. He recently developed a masterclass activity on 3D depth perception at the Royal Institution of Great Britain.
Playing football has always been a passion of his where game tactics involve strategic moves and team spirit, but he is also a keen jogger and, after running the Paris half-marathon, he would love to run the New-York marathon in the near future.
Passion for science, sustainable innovation and education are his main driving forces which are at the heart of everything he does at 3Dmagination.
