Dr. Regina Padmanabhan received her M.Tech. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the National Institute of Technology, Calicut, India, and Qatar University, Qatar, in 2009 and 2019, respectively. She also holds a diploma in Medical Electronics from MPT, Vadakara, India. Her research interests include decision support and closed-loop control for intensive care unit sedation, optimal control, adaptive control, reinforcement learning-based control, cancer dynamics, drug dosing control for ICU sedation and cancer chemotherapy, and mathematical modeling of cancer dynamics. She has five years of experience in teaching undergraduate students of Electronics and Communication Engineering and seven years of experience as a Research Assistant at Qatar University (2012-2019).
Dr. Nader Meskin received his B.Sc. from Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, Iran, in 1998, his M.Sc. from the University of Tehran in 2001, and his Ph.D. in Electrical and ComputerEngineering from Concordia University, Montreal, Canada, in 2008. He was a Postdoctoral Fellow at Texas A&M University at Qatar from January 2010 to December 2010. He is currently an Associate Professor at Qatar University, Doha, and an Adjunct Associate Professor at Concordia University. He has published more than 210 refereed journal and conference papers. His research interests include fault detection and isolation, mathematical modeling of cancer dynamics,  active control for clinical pharmacology, and multiagent systems. 

Dr. Ala-Eddin Al Moustafa is a Professor at the College of Medicine, Qatar University (QU), and an associate member of QU's Biomedical Research Center. In addition, he is still affiliated with his previous institution, the Oncology Department/Faculty of Medicine of McGill University, Canada, as an Adjunct Professor. Dr. Al Moustafa has been a Cancer Scientist since completing his Master's and Ph.D. at the University of Paris XIII, France in1992. He
