Senior🎓
Top SchoolArwa Dabbech is an Assistant Professor at Heriot-Watt University with 11 years of experience specializing in image and signal processing, particularly for astronomical imaging. Her research trajectory includes a PhD focused on deconvolution for radio interferometry and a long research associate role that bridged theoretical methods and practical exploitation of new radio telescopes. She combines rigorous engineering training from Ecole Polytechnique de Tunisie with hands-on expertise in developing algorithms that recover high-fidelity images from noisy, undersampled data. Based in Edinburgh, she brings both academic leadership and applied research experience, often translating advanced signal-processing techniques into tools that improve observational astronomy workflows. An underappreciated strength is her sustained focus on making complex inverse problems tractable for real-world instruments, positioning her work at the intersection of theory, instrumentation, and data-driven discovery.
