Benoît Jean Dominique FerrariBiologiste et biochimiste de formation, Benoît J.D. Ferrari a obtenu son diplôme de doctorat en Ecotoxicologie à lUniversité de Lorraine (Metz, France) en 2000 en travaillant sur le développement dune approche dévaluation du danger écotoxique des déchets solides utilisant une batterie de bioessais dans le cadre dun projet interdisciplinaire suivi par lAgence de lEnvironnement et de la Maîtrise de lEnergie (ADEME). Après avoir passé presque 7 années à Irstea (anciennement Cemagref) à Lyon en France (périodes 2000-2002 et 2008-2013) et avoir occupé un poste de Maitre-assistant à lInstitut F.A. Forel à Genève (2002-2008), il a acquis au travers des projets franco-suisses et européens quil a (co-)pilotés une expérience forte dans le domaine de lécotoxicologie et dans les approches pluridisciplinaires. En Octobre 2013, il rejoint le Centre Suisse dEcotoxicologie Appliquée (Centre Ecotox Eawag/EPFL) en tant que responsable du groupe Sol et Sédiment. Sintéressant à létude de lécodynamique des contaminants et leurs effets sur lécophysiologie des organismes, ses compétences et ses thématiques de recherche appliquée couvrent aujourdhui :
Le développement dindicateurs écotoxicologiques dexposition et deffets pour évaluer le stresse chimique
Lintégration des indicateurs écotoxicologiques dans des approches de laboratoire et de terrain pour le diagnostic de la qualité des écosystèmes
Le développement de bioessais adaptés pour le biomonitoring actif
Le transfert de compétence vers la sphère opérationnelle (formation).

Auke IjspeertAuke Ijspeert is a full professor at the EPFL, and head of the Biorobotics Laboratory (BioRob). He has a B.Sc./M.Sc. in physics from the EPFL (1995), and a PhD in artificial intelligence from the University of Edinburgh (1999). He carried out postdocs at IDSIA and EPFL, and at the University of Southern California (USC). He then became a research assistant professor at USC, and an external collaborator at ATR (Advanced Telecommunications Research institute) in Japan. In 2002, he came back to the EPFL as an SNF assistant professor. He was promoted to associate professor in October 2009 and to full professor in April 2016. His primary affiliation is with the Institute of Bioengineering, and secondary affiliation with the Institute of Mechanical Engineering. His research interests are at the intersection between robotics, computational neuroscience, nonlinear dynamical systems, and machine learning. He is interested in using numerical simulations and robots to get a better understanding of sensorimotor coordination in animals, and in using inspiration from biology to design novel types of robots and adaptive controllers. (see for instance Ijspeert et al Science 2007, Ijspeert Science 2014, and Nyakatura et al Nature 2019). He is also investigating how to assist people with limited mobility using exoskeletons and assistive furniture. He is regularly invited to give talks on these topics (e.g. TED talk given at TED Global Geneva, Dec 8 2015). With his colleagues, he has received paper awards at ICRA2002, CLAWAR2005, IEEE Humanoids 2007, IEEE ROMAN 2014, CLAWAR 2015, SAB2018, and CLAWAR 2019. He is an IEEE Fellow, member of the Board of Reviewing Editors of Science magazine, and associate editor for the IEEE Transactions on Medical Robotics and Bionics and for the International Journal of Humanoid Robotics. He has acted as an associate editor for the IEEE Transactions on Robotics (2009-2013) and for Soft Robotics (2018-2021). He was a guest editor for the Proceedings of IEEE, IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, Autonomous Robots, IEEE Robotics and Automation Magazine, and Biological Cybernetics. He has been the organizer of 7 international conferences (BioADIT2004, SAB2004, AMAM2005, BioADIT2006, LATSIS2006, SSRR2016, AMAM2019), and a program committee member of over 50 conferences.
