Cérémonie médaille des talents du CNRS : Daniel Brunner récompensé

Chercheur CNRS en optique à FEMTO-ST et spécialiste des réseaux de neurones photoniques, Daniel Brunner est lauréat d’une médaille de Bronze 2022.

Chaque année, les médailles du CNRS distinguent les femmes et les hommes, chercheurs, ingénieurs et techniciens qui contribuent de manière exceptionnelle au rayonnement de l’institution et plus largement de la recherche française. En 2022, les médailles d’argent (chercheur senior) et de bronze (chercheur junior) et de cristal (ingénieur) ont été attribuées à 92 scientifiques.

Cette année, trois acteurs de la recherche en Bourgogne-Franche-Comté ont reçu le 12 décembre au Kursaal de Besançon la médaille des talents du CNRS, dont Daniel Brunner, lauréat d’une médaille de bronze.

Ses travaux explorent le potentiel d’une nouvelle génération d’architectures photoniques pour le traitement de l'information. Il élabore  pour cela des dispositifs photoniques neuromorphiques - inspirés du cerveau humain - qui réalisent des taches complexes en consommant moins d'énergie et plus rapidement que les technologies d’intelligence artificielle (IA) actuelles.
