Ibrahima N'Doye is a Research Scientist in the Electrical Engineering and Environmental Science and Engineering Programs at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST). He jointly completed his PhD degree in Automatic Control from the Research Center of Automatic Control, University of Lorraine (CRAN-CNRS), Nancy, France, and in Control Systems and Industrial Informatics from the University Hassan II Ain Chock, Casablanca, Morocco, in 2011. He was a postdoctoral researcher and research scientist with the Estimation Modeling and Analysis (EMAN) group at KAUST. He was also a postdoctoral researcher at the Faculty of Science, University of Luxembourg. His main research interests include estimation, sensing, and control for nonlinear dynamical systems. He received the IEEE Senior Member grade in 2020. He is currently serving as an Associate Editor for the Conference Editorial Board (CEB) of the Control Systems Society (CSS), Associate Editor for the IEEE Control Systems Letters (L-CSS) for the triennium 2027-2029, a Subject Editor of the International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, and an Associate Editor for the Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part I: Journal of Systems and Control Engineering.
