Alonso Ramírez-Manzanares

He is a B tenured researcher at the Center for Research in Mathematics, AC (CIMAT), where he obtained his doctorate in 2007. He has a postdoc at the Radiology Department, School of Medicine of the University of Pennsylvania. His research topics include medical image processing and computer vision. In particular, he works on classical and Moderna optimization methods for biophysical model fitting and image processing, the above includes numerical optimization and artificial intelligence methods. Quantitative MR, Brain Connectivity, and Brain-microstructure characterization are among the main applications of the methodologies he has developed in recent years. Multidisciplinarity is essential in his work, which is reflected in collaborations with people from neurocomputing and neurobiology institutes in Mexico and Europe. His research work has more than 1,400 citations.
He has led several international collaborative studies working shoulder to shoulder, with researchers from some of the most prestigious laboratories in the world. He is the main organizer of one of the most important neuroimaging meetings in the country: the Annual Neuroimage Meeting. Among his academic activities he has directed and co-directed theses of students of three doctorates, eleven master's degrees and ten bachelor's degrees. 
He is a state delegate, and has been in charge of the State Program of the Computer Olympiad since 2015.
