About

I am a Schmidt Science Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Electrical, Computer, and Energy Engineering at the University of Colorado Boulder. Before joining CU Boulder, I received my PhD and M.Sc. in Physics from Uppsala University, Sweden, and I completed my B.Sc. in Physics at Turin University, Italy. I also have work experience as software developer for multiphysics simulations in the Electromagnetics team at COMSOL, Inc. I have a broad background in physics, with specialization in theoretical hadron physics.

As a Schmidt Science Fellow, I am now focusing on more applied problems. My current focus is on designing optimization and control algorithms that can be implemented in networked systems such as transportation and energy systems.

Short bio

Elisabetta Perotti is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Division of Energy Technology, Department of Space, Earth and Environment at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden. From 2022 to 2024, she was a Schmidt Science Postdoctoral Fellow at the Department of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering (ECEE), University of Colorado Boulder. Before joining CU, she received her PhD in Physics from Uppsala University, Sweden. Elisabetta’s research interests span multiple fields, from theoretical hadron physics to applied mathematics. Her current research focuses on control, optimization and modeling of electrical distribution systems and transportation networks.
