Emmanuel Trélat is a full professor of mathematics at Sorbonne Université (Paris) and is the director of Laboratoire Jacques-Louis Lions. He was the director of  Fondation Sciences Mathématiques de Paris from 2015 to 2019, a structure quite similar to Studium Centre Val de Loire. 
He has been awarded the SIAM Outstanding Paper Prize in 2006, the Maurice Audin prize in 2010, the Felix Klein prize by the European Mathematical Society in 2012
for his achievements with ArianeGroup, the Blaise Pascal prize in 2014 and the Mme Victor Noury prize in 2016 by the french Academy of Science
for his achievements in optimal and geometric control, observability and stabilization. 
He was invited as a sectional speaker at International Congress of Mathematicians in 2018. He is an elected member of Academia Europaea. He is the editor in chief of the journal ESAIM: Control Optimization and Calculus of Variations, and is the associate editor of several other journals of mathematics.
His research interests range over control theory in finite and infinite dimension, optimal control, stabilization, sub-Riemannian geometry, inverse problems,
numerical analysis.
