Journal Clubs (Creating reading groups that people want to be part of)

In this episode I talk to three lovely researchers all about journal clubs (AKA reading groups) – what they are, why you might want to be part of one, and how to start your own! I also give some insights from my own experiences running a (control-related) journal club, as well as a summary of three of my favourite papers we’ve read. You can find the transcript at: https://docs.google.com/document/d/19i4egf_2KEWqkp94ZW3QjRTH8PeAZz6yEix8zoSfx4k/edit?usp=sharingFollow the podcast on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/coffee-and-control-podcast/Or connect with me directly: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucy-hodgins-733a30175/ ReferencesAl Edwards: https://www.southampton.ac.uk/people/62mm7y/doctor-al-edwardsAntonia Marcu: https://www.southampton.ac.uk/people/5xk5lz/miss-antonia-marcuConvexification for soft landing optimal control paper: http://www.larsblackmore.com/iee_tcst13.pdfImproved soft robotic parameterisation paper: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8961972KKL observer synthesis paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.11655
