- Rachel Greenstadt, NYU Tandon School of Engineering, USA
Rachel Greenstadt holds a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science (2001) and master’s degrees in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (2002) from MIT, as well as a Ph.D. (2007) in Computer Science from Harvard. Her honors have included membership in the DARPA Computer Science Study Group, a U.S. Department of Homeland Security Fellowship, a PET Award for Outstanding Research in Privacy Enhancing Technologies, and a National Science Foundation CAREER Award. Greenstadt's research has focused on designing more trustworthy intelligent systems — systems that act not only autonomously, but also with integrity, so that they can be trusted with important data and decisions. She takes a highly interdisciplinary approach to this research, incorporating ideas from artificial intelligence, psychology, economics, data privacy, and system security. Prior to joining NYU, Greenstadt was an Associate Professor of Computer Science at Drexel University, where she ran the Privacy, Security, and Automation Laboratory (PSAL) and served as an advisor to the Drexel Women in Computing Society.

- Félicien Vallet, CNIL, France
Engineer in the technological expertise department at CNIL, he helps the Commission services and the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) to understand how complex systems and new technologies work, and the challenges they pose for privacy. His missions are to support professionals and to develop CNIL's technical doctrine while focusing mainly on subjects relating to artificial intelligence, speech processing, biometrics and anonymization. Félicien Vallet also frequently interacts with the academic research community and its institutions (ANR, Inria, CNRS, Cerna, etc.) and is a regular contributor to the LINC website (CNIL's Digital Innovation Laboratory). Before joining the CNIL, he was a researcher at the French National Audiovisual Institute (INA) and was particularly interested in issues relating to automatic information extraction, multimedia content analysis and speech signal processing. He holds engineering and doctoral degrees in Computer Science from Télécom Paris (obtained in 2007 and 2011 respectively).
