Introduction. We entrust our lives to electronics every day鈥攊n cars that drive themselves, in aircraft packed with sensors, in trains powered by high-voltage systems. Yet all of them are vulnerable to a silent adversary: electromagnetic interference (EMI). As mobility systems become smarter, more electrified, and increasingly autonomous, EMI is no longer a minor annoyance but a serious barrier to progress. Interference-related failures in safety-critical electronics are rising, threatening both reliability and user safety. Indeed, managing EMI may be the single greatest obstacle to the full roll-out of autonomy in systems where humans and machines interact. If we can crack this problem, the benefits of safe, reliable, and sustainable autonomy will reach people鈥檚 lives much faster鈥攍eading to cleaner transport, fewer accidents, smoother logistics, and greater freedom of mobility for all.

Current limitations. Traditional shielding materials and design rules can no longer keep pace with this complexity. Solutions often add weight, cost, and energy penalties, while their long-term sustainability鈥攄urability, recyclability, and circularity鈥攔emains poorly addressed. Moreover, there are no robust indicators to quantitatively assess shielding performance across the lifecycle of mobility products. EMI also propagates invisibly through parasitic paths in PCBs, cables, connectors, and enclosures, making its prediction and mitigation a multi-scale challenge that spans materials, circuits, and full system design. Conventional trial-and-error approaches are too slow, too costly, and inadequate for the rapidly evolving demands of electrified and autonomous systems

New European laws on EMI risk management are driving a major shift in how we approach device design. The focus is now on ensuring devices are safe and reliable throughout their entire lifecycle, and not anymore just following a set of design rules. This means considering how devices interact with each other and their environment, and finding new solutions to address modern EMI challenges. Current design practices often overlook these real-world interactions, especially with older devices that are already in use.

To effectively limit EMI, a holistic, system-wide approach is needed. It starts by understanding how EMI spreads 鈥� it follows the path of least resistance, affecting everything from microchips and cables to enclosures. Containing EMI requires careful placement of components and the use of specialized shielding and filtering techniques. Managing EMI risks in today鈥檚 dynamic environments is complex, and no single manufacturer or operator can handle it alone.

The research of Professor Anne Roc鈥檋 is at the heart of these on-going revolutions in the field of ElectroMagnetic Noise Management: we need sustainable electromagnetic solutions embedded in an EM risk assessment of the product (now mandatory by law). It requires to think in term of scenario of use instead of simply applying a set of rules, while addressing all stakeholders of the circular design of a product (including post-deployment). The methodology for this is not yet fully in place.

Anne's research and education interests are about integrating both sustainability and the risk-based approach into the circular design of innovative (safety-critical) products, across their value chain. She develops predictive models and tests for (innovative) screening material and EM Filters. Anne also characterizes the EM propagations in products (ICs, PCBs, mm-wave packages, power systems, cable layouts鈥�) within a community of industrial partners in the Energy Renewable and Mobility. Her goal is to develop new circular design philosophies for products deployed in constantly changing electromagnetic environment, together with her industrial and academic partners.

The ongoing revolutions in the field of ElectroMagnetic Noise management can be summarized in three words: Risk, Sustainability and Community

- Anne Roc'h studied Electronics and Antenna at ENSIL Polytechnique (Limoges, France) where she graduated as an Ing茅nieur (MSc) in Septembre 2005.
- She then worked in the University of Twente (Enschede, The Netherlands) from November 2005 to November 2009 obtain her PhD on a study of Behavioral models for common mode EMI filters, with the distinction cum laude.
- After completing her PhD, she became a postdoc at Eindhoven University of Technology (黑料福利网, The Netherlands) between June 2010 and March 2011.
- From March 2011 to June 2014, she started working as an Electromagnetic Compatibility expert at ASML (Veldhoven, The Netherlands). In ASML, she addressed and solved EMC in the industrial development cycle of modules extending from sensors to complete lithography machine. She gained an undocumented and ad-hoc 鈥渒now-how鈥� from senior industrial experts, in how to identify and mitigate EMI issues in complex installations.

- Since 2014, Anne is a Professor within the Electrical Engineering faculty of the Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands.
