Jan S. Hesthaven

After receiving his PhD in 1995 from the Technical University of Denmark, Professor Hesthaven joined Brown University, USA where he became Professor of Applied Mathematics in 2005. In 2013 he joined EPFL as Chair of Computational Mathematics and Simulation Science and since 2017 as Dean of the School of Basic Sciences. His research interests focus on the development, analysis, and application of high-order accurate methods for the solution of complex time-dependent problems, often requiring high-performance computing. A particular focus of his research has been on the development of computational methods for problems of linear and non-linear wave problems and the development of reduced basis methods, recently with an emphasis on combining traditional methods with machine learning and neural networks with broad applications, including structural health monitoring.

He has received several awards for both his research and his teaching, and has published 4 monographs and more than 160 research papers. He is on the editorial board of 8 journals and serves as Editor-in-Chief of SIAM J. Scientific Computing.

Enrique Zuazua

Enrique Zuazua Iriondo (Eibar, Basque Country - Spain, 1961) dual PhD in Mathematics - University of the Basque Country & Université Pierre et Marie Curie, holds a Chair in Applied Analysis - Alexander von Humboldt Professorship at FAU- Friedrich-Alexander University, Erlangen-Nürnberg (Germany). He leads the research project "DyCon: Dynamic Control", funded by the ERC - European Research Council at Deusto Foundation, University of Deusto - Bilbao (Basque Country, Spain) and the Department of Mathematics, at UAM - Autonomous University of Madrid where he holds secondary appoints as Professor of Applied Mathematics (UAM) and Director of CCM - Chair of Computational Mathematics (Deusto). His fields of expertise in the area of Applied Mathematics cover topics related with Partial Differential Equations, Systems Control and Machine Learning, led to some fruitful collaboration in different industrial sectors such as the optimal shape design in aeronautics and the management of electrical and water distribution networks. With an important high impact on his work (h-index = 41), he has mentored a significant number of postdoctoral researchers and coached a wide network of Science managers.
He holds a degree in Mathematics from the University of the Basque Country, and a dual PhD degree from the same university (1987) and the Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris (1988). In 1990 he became Professor of Applied Mathematics at the Complutense University of Madrid, to later move to UAM in 2001. He has been awarded the Euskadi (Basque Country) Prize for Science and Technology 2006 and the Spanish National Julio Rey Pastor Prize 2007 in Mathematics and Information and Communication Technology and the Advanced Grants by the European Research Council (ERC) NUMERIWAVES in 2010 and DyCon in 2016. He is an Honorary member of the of Academia Europaea and Jakiunde, the Basque Academy of Sciences, Letters and Humanities, Doctor Honoris Causa from the Université de Lorraine in France and Ambassador of the Friedrisch-Alexandre University in Erlangen-Nurenberg, Germany. He was an invited speaker at ICM2006 in the section on Control and Optimization. From 1999-2002 he was the first Scientific Manager of the Panel for Mathematics within the Spanish National Research Plan and from 2008-2012 he was the Founding Scientific Director of the BCAM - Basque Center for Applied Mathematics.
He is also a member of the Scientific Council if a number of international research institutions such as the CERFACS in Toulouse, France and member of the Editorial Board in some of the leading journals in Applied Mathematics and Control Theory
