Biography
Piero Tortoli (M’91-SM’96-F’19) received the Laurea degree in electronics engineering from the University of Florence, Italy, in 1978. Since then, he has been on the faculty of the Information Engineering Department at the same university, where he is currently a full Professor of Electronics. He is leading the Microelectronics Systems Design Laboratory. His research interests include the development of open ultrasound research systems and novel imaging/Doppler methods. He has authored more than 300 papers on these topics. Professor Tortoli is a Fellow of IEEE and AIMBE, “Docteur Honoris causa” of the University Claude Bernard Lyon 1, and an Honorary Member of the Polish Academy of Sciences. He chaired the 22nd International Symposium on Acoustical Imaging (1995), the 12th New England Doppler Conference (2003), and the Artimino Conference on Medical US Technology (2011, 2017, 2023).
