Dr. Hamidreza Jafarnejadsani is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Stevens Institute of Technology and director of the Safe Autonomous Systems Lab (SAS Lab). Before joining the faculty at Stevens, he was a postdoctoral research associate in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). Hamidreza received his Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering from UIUC in 2018, where he worked in the Advanced Controls Research Laboratory. He got his B.S. and M.S. degrees both in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Tehran in 2011 and the University of Calgary in 2013, respectively. Hamidreza currently serves as a topic editor for the Journal of Frontiers in Control Engineering, and he is a member of IEEE, AIAA, and ASEE professional societies. His research interests include control, optimization, robotics, machine learning, and cyber-physical security. In particular, he is interested in the resilient control design for intelligent autonomous systems in uncertain and adversarial environments.
