Summary
Jérôme Schmid is a Professor HES and applied researcher with 8+ years of hands-on experience building computer-assisted solutions for medical imaging, surgical guidance and 3D anatomical modeling. Trained in mathematics, physics and computer science (PhD, Univ. of Geneva; MSc Grenoble), he blends deep technical skills in image segmentation, registration, AR/VR and tracking with practical R&D and teaching roles at Geneva School of Health Sciences and prior surgical‑training centers. He has led small engineering teams, managed EU and Swiss grant projects, and translated research prototypes into clinical tools—often coding in C++ for performance-critical image processing. Comfortable at the intersection of academia and engineering, he pairs rigorous scientific methods with an ethic for medical best practices and usability in clinical environments. An interesting throughline is his culinary metaphor for coding: he treats system design like cooking, carefully balancing ingredients to make complex systems “taste” right.
