Education

Aldroubi received a diplôme in electrical engineering from École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, in Switzerland, in 1982.[1][2] He studied mathematics at Carnegie Mellon University, earning his master’s in 1984 and his doctorate in 1987.[3]

Career

After Carnegie, Aldroubi worked as a researcher at the National Institutes of Health.[3] He moved to the Department of Mathematics at Vanderbilt University in 1997 where he currently holds a position of professor.[1] He has worked on sampling theory, wavelets, frame theory and their applications to signal and image processing.[3][4]

In 2009, he was awarded the Fulbright Foreign Scholarship to continue teaching and conduct research.[5] In 2014, Aldroubi was inducted as a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society for "contributions to modern harmonic analysis and its applications, and for building bridges between mathematics and other areas of science and engineering."[6][7]
