Following his postdoc position at ONERA/LAM, Olivier BELTRAMO-MARTIN is starting a new postdoc position at LAM this month. Olivier will now work for the ANR APPLY on the development of Artificial Intelligence techniques for PSF reconstruction and AO-assisted data post-processing. Congrats !
Also this month, several GRD members took part to the first (virtual) face-to-face meeting of the ELT Working Groups organized by ESO to prepare for observations with the ELT.
Also, this month the MAVIS Phase A document, in which GRD members have been significantly involved, was submitted to ESO, for an official review May 26-27.
Finally, a new publication from the team was accepted for publication in A&A. Congrats Vincent CHAMBOULEYRON !
Chambouleyron et al., accepted in A&A : Pyramid wavefront sensor Optical Gains compensation using a convolutional model.
