Workshop Description
Workshop Description
The aim of this workshop is twofold. First, it aims to highlight the most recent research at the intersection of game theory, artificial intelligence (AI), multi-agent learning and systems and control, with applications to a variety of domains, including biology, economics, cyber-physical systems. Second, it aims to bring colleagues with expertise in game theory, AI and systems and control together to consider grand challenges in the current UK and EU research landscape for networking and planning for joint funding proposals. Hence, the format of this workshop designed as a hybrid between a tutorial series and research networking event as a 3-day in-person event organised at the University of Birmingham in May 13-15, 2026.
This workshop has received support from the EPSRC Network Plus funding as well as the Institute for Data and AI (IDAI) at the University of Birmingham. Furthermore, additional support has been given through the EUCA Community Grant 2026 funding to invite EU academics and early career researchers with contributed talks and for networking. To maximise the impact of the event, all invited talks will be streamed and permanently shared on this webpage.

Prof. Tamer Başar
Tamer Başar (Life Fellow, IEEE) received the B.S.E.E. degree from Robert College, Istanbul, Turkiye, in 1969, and the M.S., M.Phil., and Ph.D. degrees in engineering and applied science from Yale University, New Haven, CT, USA, in 1970, 1971, and 1972, respectively.
He has been with the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign since 1981, where he is currently Swanlund Endowed Chair Emeritus and Center for Advanced Study (CAS) Professor Emeritus of Electrical and Computer Engineering, with also affiliations with the Coordinated Science Laboratory, Information Trust Institute, and Mechanical Science and Engineering. At Illinois, he has also served as Director of CAS (2014–2020), Interim Dean of Engineering (2018), and Interim Director of the Beckman Institute (2008–2010). His current research interests include stochastic teams, games, and networks; risk-sensitive estimation and control; mean-field game theory; multiagent systems and learning; data-driven distributed optimization; epidemics modeling and control over networks; strategic information transmission, spread of disinformation, and deception; security and trust; energy systems; and cyber-physical systems. Dr. Başar received the Wilbur Cross Medal in 2021.
He is a Member of the US National Academy of Engineering and a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, as well as Fellow of IEEE, IFAC, and SIAM. He has served as the President of IEEE Control Systems Society (CSS), International Society of Dynamic Games (ISDG), and American Automatic Control Council (AACC). He has received several awards and recognitions over the years, including the highest awards of IEEE CSS, IFAC, AACC, and ISDG, the IEEE Control Systems Award, and a number of international honorary doctorates and professorships. He has over 1000 publications in systems, control, communications, optimization, networks, and dynamic games, including books on noncooperative dynamic game theory, robust control, network security, wireless and communication networks, and stochastic networked control. He was the Editor-in-Chief of Automatica between 2004 and 2014, and is currently the editor of several book series.
