E. Zattoni received a laurea degree with honors in electronics engineering in 1995 and a Ph.D. in systems engineering in 1999 from the University of Bologna, Italy. She is an Associate Professor of automatic control at the Alma Mater Studiorum Università di Bologna. She has been a Visiting Professor at Leuphana University, Aalto University, University of Michigan, Institut de Re-cherche en Communications et Cybernétique de Nantes, and Brown University. Her research interests are focused on geometric and structural approaches to control systems, including hybrid systems and time-delay systems, with applications in the synthesis of enhanced-reliability control systems. She has authored more than 150 papers in the field. She co-edited the book, “Structural Methods in the Study of Complex Systems”. She was the General Chair of the “15th European Workshop on Advanced Control and Diagnosis”. She is a member of the IFAC Technical Committee 2.2 on “Linear Control Systems” and coordinator of the TC2.2 Working Group on “Control of Complex Systems”. She is the General Chair of the “1st IFAC Workshop on Control of Complex Systems” (COSY 2022), to be held in Bologna in 2022, and IPC Co-Chair of the “8th IFAC Symposium on System Structure and Control” (SSSC 2022), to be held in Montreal in 2022. She is a Senior Member of IEEE, and she has served on the Member Activity Board of the IEEE Control Systems Society.
