Lyndon Brown

Lyndon Brown is an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Western University, specializing in control theory with applications to welding systems and bioinformatics. His groundbreaking work in welding control has influenced industrial practices, particularly in automotive assembly.

• PhD - University of Illinois @ Urbana/Champaign (1996)
• MS - University of Illinois @ Urbana/Champaign (1996)
• BASc - University of Waterloo (1988)

Research Interests focus on intermittent cancellation control, welding control systems, and modeling cellular signal transduction. His work in periodic disturbance cancellation has implications for vibration control in semiconductors and precision disk drive operations. In bioinformatics, he develops tools for genomic data analysis related to cancer and metabolic processes.

Control Laboratory (Lab #215) investigates:

• Adaptive algorithms for welding electrode monitoring
• Open/closed loop strategies for predictable disturbance cancellation
• Signal transduction pathway modeling for high-throughput biological data

Collaborations include serving on the Board of Directors of IRW, Inc., the automotive industry's spot welding research consortium.
