About me

I am a Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) at the Department of Automatic Control at Lund University  since 2021 with a WASP (Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program) professorship. 

I received my Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering in 2019, and my M.Sc. and B.Sc. degrees, both in Engineering Physics, in 2013 and 2011, all from KTH Royal Institute of Technology. Between 2019-2020, I was a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Institute for Data, Systems, and Society at MIT, hosted by prof. Ali Jadbabaie and prof. Munther Dahleh . My doctoral studies at KTH were under the supervision of Henrik Sandberg and Karl H. Johansson. I have also spent time as a research visitor at Caltech (2011), the Johns Hopkins University (2013) and University of California at Santa Barbara (2015), where I have worked with Dennice Gayme and Bassam Bamieh.

My research interests are within analysis and control of large-scale networked systems and much of my work has focused on describing fundamental limitations of distributed control. I have a particular interest for control challenges in highly distributed electric power networks, social and sociotechnical network systems, as well as challenges relating to the COVID19 pandemic.

I am the Secretary of the European Control Association (EUCA) and Chair of Chapter Activities for the IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS).

Here is a short CV (updated January 2022).
