BiographiesLong VersionMasako Kishida is a Professor at the University of Tsukuba, Japan. She received the B.S. and M.S.E. degrees in Aerospace Engineering and the M.S. degree in Applied and Interdisciplinary Mathematics, all from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, in 2004 and 2006, respectively, and the Ph.D. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2010. She held research and faculty positions in the U.S.A., Japan, New Zealand, and Germany. From 2016 to 2025, she was Associate Professor at the National Institute of Informatics, Tokyo. Her research interests include control theory under uncertainty, networked and resource-aware control, and graph signal processing. She has contributed to both theoretical foundations and interdisciplinary applications, ranging from distributed control and learning-based systems to risk-aware decision-making frameworks. She was a recipient of the Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellowship (2015), the Telecom System Technology Award (2019), and the Young Scientists’ Prize from the Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, Japan (2020). She is a Senior Member of IEEE and currently serves as Associate Editor for the IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control and the IEEE Open Journal of Control Systems.
