Sebastian Neira Castillo (MIEEE, MIET) is a Lecturer in Electrical Machines and Drives at The University of Edinburgh. He received a dual PhD in Engineering from Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile and the University of Edinburgh, with a thesis titled "Design of Power Converters with Embedded Energy Storage for Hybrid DC-AC Applications".

His research expertise lies within the power electronics field with extensive practical experience in developing novel power converter topologies and control systems with direct use in electrical machine drives, renewable energy applications and energy storage systems. A core component of his work is the experimental validation of power conversion systems, with experience testing up to megawatt-scale power ratings. Since 2019, he has actively participated in collaborative research projects, resulting in the publication of 1 patent application and 30 peer-reviewed articles.
