Each panelist will reflect on what attracted them to the field of multi-agent trust modeling, their initial research interests, current research focus and the role of trust modeling in their research. Each of them will do a presentation, followed by a discussion among the panelists. We will then open the floor for an engaging question and answer session from all workshop attendees.

The panel will enable us to examine the origins of our sub-field and the ways in which it has spawned new research directions. Together we will collectively imagine what the future holds. We are fortunate to have as panelists leading figures in the field who have helped to frame its existence over the years.
