Benjamin Decardi-Nelson is a Schmidt AI in Science Postdoctoral Fellow in Systems Engineering at Cornell University. Benjamin’s research centers around developing novel computational tools to improve the analysis, design and control of complex processes and systems, with the overarching goal of sustainability. He earned his PhD in Process Control from the University of Alberta in Canada. Within the context of controlled environment agriculture (CEA), Benjamin integrates biology-informed AI with optimization to decarbonize CEA systems through implicit learning of plant-environment interactions, and renewable energy integration.
