Dr. Stephane completed his high school education in 1984 at the Athenee Royal in Ath, Belgium. In this period, he started to build experimental devices to participate in the young investigators awards of the "Jeunesses Scientifiques de Belgique". He was laureate in the junior category in 1981 with a reproduction of a Bell telephone, transmitting voice using modulated-intensity light. He was laureate in the senior category in 1983 with an experimental ECG system. He was also twice the laureate of the "Federation des Associations d'Informaticiens de Belgique" for software solving chemical steochiometric equations in 1982 and another one to teach music in 1984.

He started medical school in the Free University of Brussels (ULB), Belgium in 1984. He was awarded a Prix Fleurisse Mercier in 1984 and 1985. Stephane started work in 1985 as a student-assistant in the "Centre do Calcul Scientifique". Later, he worked in the cardiology department of the Hospital Universities Saint Pierre, developing software for the processing of Doppler echocardiographic signals. Laureate of an IBM research and travel grant in 1986, he spent one month in the IBM Watson Research Centre in Yorktown Heights, NY. With his improved experimental ECG system interfaced to a familiar PC to compute vectocardiograms, he won in 1987 the prize of the "Ordres des Indenieurs du Quebec" during the Expo-Sciences International in Laval, Quebec.
