Assim BoukhaymaAssim Boukhayma was born in Rabat, Morocco, on February 5, 1988. He received the graduate engineering degree (D.I.) in information and communication technology and the M.Sc. in microelectronics and embedded systems architecture from Telecom-Bretagne, Brest, France, in 2013. He is currently working toward the Ph.D. at Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL), Neuchatel, Switzerland and Commissariat a l Energie Atomique (CEA-LETI), Grenoble, France with Prof. Christian Enz on the subject of CMOS image sensors.
From 2011 to 2012, he worked with Bouygues-Telecom as a Telecommunication Radio Junior Engineer. In 2013, he did his M.Sc. Internship at Commissariat a l Energie Atomique (CEA-LETI) on the design of a low noise CMOS THz camera and published this work at the 40th European Solid-State Circuits Conference (ESSCIRC).
