Speaking frankly about her own struggles with depression and homelessness after academic struggles forced her to leave college, she inspires audiences with her story of overcoming. A decade later, she returned with a new mindset and graduated from the San Diego campus of the University of California with a B.S. in Cognitive Neuroscience. She continued schooling to obtain a Ph.D. from Carnegie Mellon in Psychology.
Dr. Ming co-founded a think tank to research human potential, called Socos Labs. Working to influence global policies, her work focuses on integrating AI to predict the best candidates for jobs in technology and analyse merit-based career promotions. She's also developed AI systems to predict bipolar manic episodes in advance, help her diabetic son with treatment, and reunite refugee families.
As a TEDx speaker, neuroscientist, and author, Dr. Ming's research has transformed the way audiences view AI potential and its uses in developing high-performing and inclusive cultures. Advocating for integrating machine learning to enhance human performance, Dr. Ming is blazing a new path for listeners to follow. By fostering innovation and offering technical tools to address human behaviour and group dynamics, Dr. Ming is revolutionising the future of work across the globe.
