We had the pleasure of hosting Professor Bruno FRANCOIS from L2EP, Centrale Lille (France), at GECAD – Research Group on Intelligent Engineering and Computing for Advanced Innovation Development, ISEP – Instituto Superior de Engenharia do Porto.

We warmly welcomed him to our lab, where we seized the opportunity to discuss our ongoing research activities. During his visit, Professor Bruno discussed closely the ongoing work with Mohamad EL IAALI, our PhD student co-supervised jointly by L2EP/Centrale Lille and GECAD. Mohamad is pursuing his PhD on Digital Twins in distribution networks, focusing on state estimation and optimizing electric vehicles and flexibilities.

Bruno FRANCOIS also held meetings with other students, bringing his vast teaching experience and research activities here.
In the photos, he appears with Prof. Zita Vale and myself (bottom left), Dr. Pedro Faria (discussing new equipment at our lab), the PhD student Mohamad El Ialli (top left), and Prof. Sergio Ramos (top right).

We look forward to welcoming Professor Bruno and other colleagues from L2EP/Centrale Lille again in the near future!
