Mohammad Reza Karimi Dastjerdi

I am Mohammad Reza Karimi Dastjerdi (Momo), a Ph.D. student at Université Laval, working with Prof. Jean-François Lalonde. During my Ph.D., I had the opportunity to do two research internships at Adobe and worked with Yannick Hold-Geoffroy and Jonathan Eisenmann. In addition, I have the privilege of collaborating with numerous professors from around the globe: Prof. Nima Kalantari (Texas A&M University), Prof. Javier Vazquez-Corral (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona), and Prof. P J Narayanan (IIIT, Hyderabad). Before joining Université Laval, I did my master's at Visual Media Lab (VML), Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), supervised by Prof. Junyong Noh.

I am passionate about developing creative technologies and creating digital tools for artists.

I am currently doing an internship at Qualcomm, working alongside Dr. Kartikeya Bhardwaj and Dr. Harris Teague on generative AI for edge devices.
