M.K. (Kanat) Camlibel is a distinguished academic specializing in applied mathematics, with a focus on control and piecewise linear dynamical systems. He is currently a full professor at the Bernoulli Institute, University of Groningen, where he has been serving since 2001 in various academic roles. He completed his Ph.D. at Tilburg University in 2001, with a thesis on "Complementarity Methods in the Analysis of Piecewise Linear Dynamical Systems," under the supervision of Prof. Hans Schumacher. His academic journey also includes an M.Sc. (1994) and B.Sc. (1991) in Control and Computer Engineering from Istanbul Technical University. Professor Çamlıbel’s research contributions have been recognized with several prestigious awards, including the 2021 IEEE Control Systems Letters Outstanding Paper Award and multiple Teaching Awards at the University of Groningen. His groundbreaking work includes extensions of Willems' fundamental lemma for state-space systems. With a career spanning over two decades, his academic appointments have included roles at Eindhoven University of Technology, Dogus University, and Centrum voor Wiskunde en Informatica (CWI) in Amsterdam. His expertise is reflected in a robust publication record, mentorship of students, and contributions to advancing control systems and mathematical modeling. 

Dr. Tushar JAIN received the degree of Doctor in Control, Identification and Diagnostic from Universite de Lorraine, Nancy, France in 2012. He previously received the degree of M.Tech. in System modeling and control from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Roorkee in 2009. From 2013 to 2014 and 2014 to 2015, he was a Post-doc researcher and Academy of Finland researcher respectively in the Research Group of Process Control at Aalto University, Finland. Since 2015, he is with the School of Computing and Electrical Engineering, IIT Mandi. During these last years, his research interest has been mainly concentrated on mathematical control theory, fault tolerant control, fault diagnosis and climate-controlled agriculture. He has received thrice the best paper award for his research work. He has authored a book entitled Active Fault-Tolerant Control Systems: A Behavioral System Theoretic Perspective. He is a senior member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
