Research Interests: I'm interested in all areas of information theory and related fields. In particular in multi-user systems.
Most of my previous research activities were related to one of the following topics:
Communication over networks with feedback, state-information, cooperation links,s correlated sources, or caches.
Coordination of smart distributed agents over noisy networks.
Distributed compression and storage systems.
Distributed computing systems.
Distributed detection systems (hypothesis testing).
Free-space optical communication.
Integrated sensing and communication systems (ISAC)
For more information about my research, please consider my publications and
presentations.

Bio: Michèle Wigger received the M.Sc. degree in electrical engineering, with distinction, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering both from ETH Zurich in 2003 and 2008, respectively. She was awarded two ETH Medals, one for her Master Thesis and one for her PhD Thesis. In 2009, she was a post-doctoral fellow at the University of California, San Diego, USA, before joining Telecom Paris, where she has been an associate and full professor until 2026. Since February 2026 she has been a full professor at CentraleSupelec. She has also held visiting professor appointments at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, the University of Zurich, and ETH Zurich.
Dr. Wigger has been an associate editor for the IEEE Transactions on Information Theory and the IEEE Communications Letters, and has also served as a co-lead guest editor for the IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Information Theory for the special issue on sensing and for two special issues of the Entropy journal. She was a TPC co-chair of ISIT2025, has served on the TPC for numerous other conferences in information theory and communications, and also on a variety of committees of the IEEE Information Theory Society, including its Board of Governors.
Funding accomplishments include an Emergences Grant from the city of Paris, a Discruptive-ICT grant from Huawei, a Collaborative Project Grant from the French Funding Agency ANR, and both ERC Starting and Consolidator Grants. She recently became an IEEE Fellow and has been awarded the "prix Michel Monpetit" jointly from INRIA (Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et en Automatique) and the French Academy of Sciences.
