Clara Lucía GalimbertiClara Galimberti is a PhD student at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) under the supervision of Professor Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate. She received her degree in Electronic Engineering from Universidad Nacional de Rosario (UNR), Argentina, in 2018. Her research lies at the intersection of machine learning and control theory. Currently, she is working on the development of deep networks inspired by dynamical systems and the study of their utilization for the control of complex systems while guaranteeing stability of the closed-loop dynamics, even during the learning phase.
David Andrew BarryResearch InterestsSubsurface hydrology, constructed wetlands, ecological engineering, in particular contaminant transport and remediation of soil and groundwater; more generally, models of hydrological and vadose zone processes; application of mathematical methods to hydrological processes; coastal zone sediment transport, aquifer-coastal ocean interactions; hydrodynamics and modelling of lakes.
Assim BoukhaymaAssim Boukhayma was born in Rabat, Morocco, on February 5, 1988. He received the graduate engineering degree (D.I.) in information and communication technology and the M.Sc. in microelectronics and embedded systems architecture from Telecom-Bretagne, Brest, France, in 2013. He is currently working toward the Ph.D. at Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL), Neuchatel, Switzerland and Commissariat a l Energie Atomique (CEA-LETI), Grenoble, France with Prof. Christian Enz on the subject of CMOS image sensors.
From 2011 to 2012, he worked with Bouygues-Telecom as a Telecommunication Radio Junior Engineer. In 2013, he did his M.Sc. Internship at Commissariat a l Energie Atomique (CEA-LETI) on the design of a low noise CMOS THz camera and published this work at the 40th European Solid-State Circuits Conference (ESSCIRC).
Reymond ClavelReymond CLAVEL obtained his degree in mechanical engineering at the Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, in 1973. After nine years of gathered experience in industrial plants at Hermes Precisa International (research and development), he was appointed professor at the EPFL, where he obtained his PhD degree in parallel robotics in 1991. He was then consecutively entrusted with the following positions: Head of the department, Director of the Section of micro engineering and, in 1993, Director of the Laboratory of robotics systems (LSRO). His present research topics are parallel robotics, high speed and high precision robotics, medical and surgical robotics applications, surgical instrumentation and precision mechanisms.
Reymond Clavels research successes in parallel and industrial robotics received worldwide special mentions.

Christian Gabriel TheilerChristian Theiler obtained his Master’s degree in physics from ETH Zurich in 2007 and his PhD from EPFL in 2011. He then joined MIT as a postdoctoral associate to work on the Alcator C-Mod tokamak. In 2014, he returned to EPFL as a EUROfusion fellow, to join the TCV tokamak team. Two years later, he was named Tenure Track Assistant Professor in Plasma Physics at EPFL. Christian’s research focuses on tokamak boundary physics and related diagnostic techniques. He has contributed to the understanding of the formation, propagation, and control of turbulent plasma structures, called blobs, and gained new insights on the structure of transport barriers in the plasma periphery in different high-confinement regimes. His current research focuses on detachment physics and turbulence characteristics in conventional and alternative divertor magnetic geometries.
