Manage episode 355429753 series 3348936
Our guest in this episode is Rodolphe Sepulchre, Professor of Engineering at
KU Leuven in the Deparment of Electrical Engineering (STADIUS) and at the University of Cambridge in the Deparment of Engineering (Control Group). We dive into Rodophe's scientific journey across nonlinear control, neuroscience and optimization on manifolds through the unifying lens of control theory.
