Adán José-García
Logo Associate Professor

I am an Associate Professor (Maître de conférences) in Computer Science at Department of Computer Science at the Université de Picardie Jules Verne (UPJV), Amiens, France, where I am affiliated with the MIS laboratory (Modélisation, Information & Systèmes), within the UFR des Sciences.

My research lies at the intersection of machine learning and optimization, with a particular focus on clustering, metaheuristics, multi-objective optimization, and their applications in healthcare.

Before joining UPJV, I was a Research Scientist at Université de Lille, affiliated with CRIStAL and INFINITE laboratories. Previously, I was a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Exeter and a Research Fellow at the University of Manchester. I obtained my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Cinvestav-IPN, Mexico.

My website is currently being updated. Additional content will be added over the coming days.
