Daniel Cherenson

PhD Student in Robotics, University of Michigan

I am a second-year Ph.D student at the DASC Lab, part of the Department of Robotics at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. I am advised by Professor Dimitra Panagou. My research interests are safe and efficient planning and control under uncertainty with applications to aerial robotic systems.

Previously, I was a guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) engineer at Raytheon, L3Harris, and Near Earth Autonomy, where I worked on missile guidance, hypersonic vehicle simulation, VTOL control, and GPS-denied navigation. I received an MS in Electrical Engineering and a BS in Mechanical Engineering from Washington University in St. Louis.
