Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlistair Boyce is a data scientist and inverse problem specialist with 10 years’ experience turning complex physical measurements into actionable images and insights, now building muon-imaging algorithms at Muodim in Lyon. Trained as a seismologist with a PhD from Imperial College, he has a track record of identifying fundamental flaws in geophysical imaging, applying Bayesian uncertainty quantification and combining diverse data types to produce validated, higher-fidelity results. His postdoc and research roles include leading funded, multidisciplinary teams, open-source toolkits for geophysical imaging, and multiple first-author publications. Comfortable bridging academic rigor and industrial application, he also teaches scientific communication and routinely helps clients exploit and interpret imaging outputs. An uncommon strength is his hands-on experience converting subatomic particle datasets into 2D/3D images—bringing particle physics techniques to industrial imaging problems.
