This volume presents a timely overview of control theory and inverse problems, and highlights recent advances in these active research areas. The chapters are based on talks given at the spring school "Control & Inverse Problems" held in Monastir, Tunisia in May 2022. In addition to providing a snapshot of these two areas, chapters also highlight breakthroughs on more specific topics, such as:

• Controllability of dynamical systems
• Information transfer in multiplier equations
• Nonparametric instrumental regression
• Control of chained systems
• The damped wave equation

Control and Inverse Problems will be a valuable resource for both established researchers as well as more junior members of the community.
