Nicole Bienert
- Assistant Professor
- REMOTE SENSING
Nicole Bienert received her Ph.D. and master’s in electrical engineering from Stanford University and her B.S. degree in electrical engineering with a minor in physics from the Schreyer Honors College at The Pennsylvania State University. Throughout her education, Nicole interned at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and after graduation, she joined Google as an equitable imaging researcher. She then returned to academia as a postdoc at the University of Southern California.
Bienert is a computational imaging researcher in environmental radar remote sensing and computational photography. Her innovations in signal processing, inverse theory, and instrumentation enable 2D-4D imaging at a quality, clarity, resolution, or spatial extent impossible with conventional imaging methods. Her work earned the 2020 IGARSS Prize Paper Award and an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship.
