Yann Stephan was born in Lannion, France, in 1966. He received the Engineer diploma in electrical engineering from ENSIEG in Grenoble, France, in 1990 and the Ph.D. degree in computer sciences in 1996 from CNAM, Paris, France.

Since 1992, he has worked with the Service Hydrographique et Océanographique de la Marine (SHOM) within the Center for Military Oceanography, Brest, France, first as a Research Engineer in ocean acoustic tomography. Since 1997, he has been the Head of the Ocean Acoustics Group. His current topics include inverse methods, internal waves tomography, and tactical use of the environment.
