Act For Climate and 123 Climat
TéSA took part in the 2026 edition of the Act For Climate and 123 Climat event, co-organized by Planet’RSE Toulouse, ToulÉco Green, the Toulouse branch of The Shifters, and the Midi-Pyrénées region. This highly rewarding day provided an opportunity to exchange ideas and deepen our understanding of corporate social responsibility challenges. TéSA also demonstrated its strong commitment to environmental and societal issues by winning the knowledge competition held throughout the day.
TéSA scientific seminar
Following on from his PhD research, Hamish McPhee, now a postdoctoral researcher and still at TéSA, presented his work on the application of robust and misspecified estimation to time scale generation in a swarm of nanosatellites. It was a great opportunity for everyone to discover how onboard clocks can work together while remaining resilient to disturbances, …and to put their own synchronization skills to the test!

One more award for Marta Bottani!
And it continues… Marta Bottani, a TéSA doctoral student, has won another award! She received the 1st prize for Best Student Paper at the IEEE CAMSAP 2025 international conference (IEEE International Workshop on Computational Advances in Multi-Sensor Adaptive Processing), which took place in December. Congratulations again!
One more price for a TéSA PhD student!
Youssef Minyari, a PhD student at TéSA, won first prize for Best Student Paper at the IEEE ICSOS 2025 (IEEE International Conference on Space Optical Systems and Applications), held in Japan at the end of October, for his paper on “Robust MISO coherent optical GEO satellite feeder link with relaxed implementation constraints,” co-authored with Raphaël Le Bidan (IMT Atlantique), Charly Poulliat (Toulouse INP), and Aubin Lecointre (Thales Alenia Space).
One word: BRAVO!!!!!
For a first paper, this is a remarkable achievement!
TéSA scientific seminar
Emile Ghizzo, a postdoctoral researcher at ISAE-SUPAERO, presented a seminar on GNSS signal processing under spoofing. It was a very interesting seminar that helped us understand the effects of these attacks on the GNSS signal and its processing. This is undoubtedly a current problem affecting many systems, including airliners that become lost and diverted, disrupting all air traffic. Thank you to Emile for this seminar!
TéSA scientific seminar
No, it wasn’t Bernhard Riemann who gave us a seminar, but Arnaud Breloy, Professor at the Center for Studies and Research in Computer Science and Communications at the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers, who presented Riemannian flow matching for InSAR phase denoising. Thanks to him for this seminar, which echoed work started in TéSA! Undoubtedly the beginning of fruitful collaborations….
TéSA scientific seminar
Daouda PENE, currently a post-doctoral fellow at TéSA/IPSA, presented the research work of his PhD thesis, defended in December 2024, on the modeling of fuel cell aging using a hybrid approach, carried out within the LAPLACE laboratory in collaboration with the Toulouse Institute of Mathematics. His post-doctoral work focuses on the development of regression methods on Lie groups in collaboration with Samy Labsir (IPSA/TéSA), Jean-Yves Tourneret (IRIT/TéSA) and Julien Lesouple (ENAC/TéSA).
TéSA scientific seminar
Lisa Bedin, currently a doctoral student in computer science at the École Polytechnique in Palaiseau, is defending her PhD thesis in May 2025. Her research covers diverse areas such as diffusion models, language models, and biomedical applications. As a preview before her defense, she came to present her thesis work on diffusion models with an application to electrocardiogram (ECG) reconstruction.
Congrats to the first HDR of TéSA
On March 4, 2025, Lorenzo Ortega brilliantly defended his Habilitation à Diriger les Recherches (HDR) in front of a jury that praised the richness and level of his work: from left to right in the photo, Patrick DANES, Professor at Paul Sabatier University in Toulouse, Eric CHAUMETTE, Professor at ISAE-SUPAERO, Cédric RICHARD, Professor at Côte d’Azur University, Audrey GIREMUS, Professor at Bordeaux University, Lorenzo ORTEGA (our new HDR), Jean-Yves TOURNERET, Professor at Toulouse-INP and Nabil EL KORSO, Professor at Paris-Saclay University.
Congratulations Lorenzo for this great defense! A great career is coming for you … and for all those who are lucky enough to work with you 🙂
