Francisco Gallardo López, a senior researcher of the GRC-UPM and an IEEE member, has been designated by the IEEE Spain Section to a working group of technology policy experts in the IEEE European Public Policy Committee (EPPC). This group will assist the IEEE EPPC in the development of a position statement on the topic of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and for subsequent activities.

The IEEE EPPC aims at expanding the dialogue between the European engineering community and European public authorities to enable technologists to more easily share their expertise and concerns and to enable European Union (EU) institutions and other policy stakeholders to more easily obtain technologists’ input in matters relating to IEEE’s fields of interest.

Francisco Gallardo López is currently developing his PhD thesis on GNSS anti-spoofing techniques based on Machine Learning in the GRC-UPM, under an industrial doctorate program between DLR-GfR and UPM and supervised by Prof. Antonio Pérez Yuste, also a member of the GRC-UPM.
