Youssef joined the lab in 2024 after a B.S. in Systems and Biomedical Engineering from Cairo University. He completed his M.Sc. in June 2026 with a thesis on diffusion-based 3D building reconstruction from single nadir images, recommended for an M.Sc. Thesis Prize. He continues on 3D urban modelling as a Ph.D. student.
