Kristi Morgansen
Kristi A. Morgansen Hill is an American control theorist specializing in nonlinear control and its applications in biologically inspired sensing and motion, including the motion of robot fish.[1] She is Boeing-Egtvedt Endowed Professor and chair of the William E. Boeing Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at the University of Washington.[2]
Education and career
[edit]Morgansen studied mechanical engineering at Boston University, where she earned a bachelor's degree in 1994 and a master's degree in 1995. Next, she moved to Harvard University, where she earned a second master's degree in applied mathematics in 1996 and a Ph.D. in Engineering Sciences in 1999.[2] Her doctoral dissertation, Temporal Patterns in Learning and Control, was supervised by Roger W. Brockett.[3]
After postdoctoral research at the California Institute of Technology, she joined the University of Washington faculty in 2002.[2] She was named as the Boeing-Egtvedt Endowed Professor in 2022.[4]
Recognition
[edit]Morgansen was named as a Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics in 2021.[5]
