The inControl shop is online! 😀🎉 To celebrate, we have a small giveaway of FREE inControl goodies. If you are still around, stop by and grab yours at the registration desk of ECC24! 🛍️ Link: incontrolpodcast.myshopify.c…

inControl is moving its social-media home to LinkedIn! We’ll gradually phase out this account, so please follow us there to stay in the loop. 🎙️ And keep an eye on your LinkedIn feed on Monday... a spicy new episode is coming! 🌶️👀

🎙️ New episode! 100 years after Minorsky’s paper, why does PID control still run the world’s factories? With T. Hägglund & J. L. Guzmán (@lunduniversity & @UDAlmeria_Eng), we explore the art and history of PID control, from tuning rules to feedforward design and even microalgae!

🎙️New episode!📉 In 1900, a Frenchman priced bonds on the Paris Bourse using Brownian motion. In 1997, two economists won the Nobel Prize for turning that idea into a formula that changed finance forever. In 1998, their hedge fund nearly took down the global financial system.🌍💥

New episode! 🎙️Peter Caines (@mcgillu) takes us through six decades of control, from system identification to adaptive control to the birth of mean field games, all infused with the restless spirit of the 1960s: Coltrane, Kerouac, and even hitch-hiking all the way to Istanbul!👇

🎙️ New episode! We explore the beautiful intersection of complexity, emergent behaviour, and feedback control with @mdiberna (@UninaIT). We discuss chaos and bifurcations, piecewise-smooth systems, complex networks, synthetic biology, COVID modeling, and control across scales! 🚀

New inControl episode out! 🎙 This time Steve Brunton, aka @eigensteve 🎥, walks us through data-driven modeling and control: from DMD and Koopman operator theory, to SINDy, explainable AI 🤖, HydroGym 🌊, and how to teach math to half a million people! 🚀

🎙️New episode! Our new inControl Guide to… dives into the Nyquist stability criterion: a theorem that decides the fate of a feedback system by watching a curve encircle a point.🌀One of the most beautiful ideas in control where stability, topology, and complex analysis meet. 🔄

When did optimal control begin? From a bead sliding down a wire in 1696 to neural networks playing Go. From the brachistochrone to Lagrange, Hamilton, Pontryagin... and yes, AlphaGo! The episode covers 300 years of optimal control, from Enlightenment puzzles to AI milestones 🚀

🎙️ New episode! Jeff Shamma (@UofIllinois) on gain scheduling, robustness, and why the waterbed effect never really goes away. From PhD years to game theory and multi-agent learning... and the one piece of advice from both control and jiu-jitsu: “Don’t get tired.” Unmissable!

New episode out 🎙️ This one is a bit different: we look at female influencers in control — ideas, trajectories, some data, and why this conversation matters. Constructive feedback, criticism, and perspectives welcome 💬

🎙️ New episode! What is feedback, really? We go back to its prehistory, revisit Black’s negative-feedback amplifier, and trace the idea through biology, strategy, behaviour, and even our assumptions about causality. Link: incontrolpodcast.com Thanks: NCCR Automation

🎙️ New episode! We travel back to 19th-century Russia to meet A. M. Lyapunov, the mathematician who gave science the language of stability. Through a life marked by devotion and tragedy, his 1892 thesis still shapes how we understand dynamics, uncertainty, and control today.

🚦 New episode! Legendary traffic-control pioneer Markos Papageorgiou (@tuc_chania) joins us to discuss how intelligent control algorithms help cut congestion, reduce CO₂ emission, and keep cities moving for millions every day!

🎙️ New episode! @DellaSantinaC takes us inside soft robotics — a young, daring field where compliance replaces rigidity, intelligence emerges from shape, and underactuation is a feature, not a flaw. A rare front-row seat to a discipline with more questions than answers. 🚀🧠

Our first "inControl Guide" episode is out! 😄 From Kalman's paradigm-shifting state-space approach to the space race, complex networks, and more — a ~1h deep dive into some of the main pillars of modern control theory. Plus a small surprise awaits 😉 Let us know what you think!

🎙️ New episode! Mathukumalli Vidyasagar walks us through five decades of asking (and answering) the right questions in control, learning, and applied math — from feedback systems to statistical learning, HMMs, compressed sensing, and non-convex optimization. Unmissable! 🚀🧠

🎙️ New episode! Anders Rantzer (@lunduniversity) walks us through robust control, IQCs, the KYP lemma, nonlinear and hybrid systems, scalability and positivity, and dual (adaptive) control. A journey shaped by the dialogue between Western and Russian control traditions — don’t miss it! 🧠🚀

New episode! 🚀Miroslav Krstić (@KrsticUCSD) joins us to retrace a landmark journey — from nonlinear adaptive control to backstepping for PDEs, delay compensation via predictors, extremum seeking, safety and neural operators for PDE control. A must for every control enthusiast!

🎙️ New episode! Manfred Morari traces his journey from chemical process control to IMC, robust and predictive control, MPC, and lessons from a career spanning @ETH, @Caltech & @Penn. From theory to real-world impact, this episode is a must-listen for any control enthusiast! 🚀🎧
