Thomas Tarnaud (https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7280-4348) was born in Wilrijk, Belgium, on May 12, 1993. He received the M. Sc. Degree in engineering physics from Ghent University (Belgium) in July 2016. From August 2016 to December 2020, he was working as a PhD fellow of the FWO-V (Research Foundation, Flanders) at the Department of Information Technology (INTEC), Ghent University, Belgium. His research focused on computational modeling of electrical and ultrasonic neuromodulation, electromagnetic safety and neural engineering. This work led to a Ph. D. degree in March 2021. Since March 2021, he is working as a postdoctoral researcher at Ghent University, INTEC, WAVES and from October 2021 as postdoctoral fellow of the FWO. His research is focused on computational modeling of electrical and ultrasonic neuromodulation, electromagnetic safety and neural engineering. From August to November 2022, he stayed at the Translational Neural Engineering lab of Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (Switzerland) to conduct research on automated and experimentally validated computational pipelines for ultrasound neuromodulation of peripheral nerves. From May to June 2023, he performed research at the Electromagnetics in Health Technology lab of Aalto University (Finland) on realistic axon models derived from diffusion tractography for transcranial magnetic stimulation.
