My research focuses on developing artificial intelligence, machine learning, optimization, and multi-agent systems solutions to create social impact, specifically in the area of health, public health, and environmental sustainability.

Examples include assisting health workers in maternal and child health, designing AI early warning system for children’s health, sustaining wildlife conservation using game theory models, and monitoring the environmental impacts of industrialization.

My work has been recognized and supported by Schimidt Science AI2050, Siebel Scholars, NSF CISE Core Medium, and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Pediatric Technology Center at Georgia Tech (PTC)

Social Impact Applications

We work closely with NGOs and hospitals to design and deploy AI solutions in social impact applications. Our goal is to ensure the AI algorithms actually work in practice to create real-world impact.
