note = "Funding Information: Fran{\c c}ois Delarue was born in 1976 in Normandy, France. He graduated from the {\'E}cole Normale Sup{\'e}rieure de Lyon (France), where he studied from 1996 to 1999. He received a PhD from the University of Marseille (France) in 2002, working on stochastic differential equations under the supervision of Etienne Pardoux. The same year, he was hired by University Paris 7{\textendash}Diderot as an assistant profes- sor ({\textquotedblleft}ma{\^i}tre de conf{\'e}rence{\textquotedblright} in the French system) at the research laboratory Laboratoire de Probabilit{\'e}s et Mod{\`e}les Al{\'e}atoires. He stayed in Paris from 2002 to 2009 working on the team of Francis Comets, who was his advisor for the {\textquotedblleft}habilitation {\'a} diriger des recherches{\textquotedblright} (French degree for supervising PhD theses) that he received in 2008. Since 2009, he has been a full professor at the research laboratory of mathematics Laboratoire Dieudonn{\'e} of the University of Nice Sophia Antipolis. In 2014, he was appointed a junior fellow of the Institut Universitaire de France for five years. Since 2019, he has been supported by a chair allocation from the Institut 3IA (Institute for Artificial Intelligence in Nice). Funding Information: Fran{\c c}ois Delarue{\textquoteright}s research is in stochastic analysis, including mean field particle systems and applications to partial differential equations. He met his coauthor Ren{\'e} Carmona for the first time in 2009, and he invited him to spend one month in Nice in 2010 in order to initiate a collaboration. Since Ren{\'e}{\textquoteright}s visit, they have been working together on the probabilistic approach to mean field games. Fran{\c c}ois Delarue{\textquoteright}s research on the subject is supported by the French National Research Agency (ANR). Since 2011, Fran{\c c}ois Delarue has been managing, at the Department of Mathematics of the University of Nice, the European MSc program in applied mathematics {\textquotedblleft}Mathmods,{\textquotedblright} which runs in collaboration with other universities in Europe. Since 2018, he has also been managing the CNRS International Research Network of mathematics between southern Eu- rope and northern Africa. Since 2019, he has been co-editor in chief, with Peter Friz, of the journal Annals of Applied Probability. Copyright: Copyright 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.",
