Short Bio
---------------------------------------------------
------------

Jérôme Mendes has received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the `University of Coimbra <http://www.uc.pt/en/>`_ in 2014, with the subject “Computational Intelligence Methodologies for Control of Industrial Processes”. Since 2015, Jérôme has been PhD Researcher at `Institute of Systems and Robotics (ISR) <http://www.isr.uc.pt/>`_. 

Jérôme has been involved as a team member with enterprise partners in several R&D projects, focusing his research in developing computational intelligence-based solutions, mainly on industrial processes:

- He has published (at least) 38 papers and been involved in 23 R&D projects, 4 as Principal Investigator (PI), and 1 as co-PI.
- Since Jan/2021, Member of the Board (Vogal) of Directors of National Association of Researchers in Science and Technology (ANICT).  
- Since, Sept/2021, Invited Assistant Professor at University of Coimbra.
