Senior🎓
Top SchoolHossein Adeli is an Associate Research Scientist in New York with a decade of interdisciplinary experience at the intersection of cognitive science and machine learning, applying AI to drive product and growth opportunities in financial services and academia. He blends deep academic training (PhD in Cognitive Science) with industry-facing research roles—from building prototypes at Refinitiv to modeling visual attention and eye-movement neural dynamics in neurophysiology collaborations. Comfortable teaching and mentoring as part-time faculty, he translates complex computational models (e.g., deep auto-encoders and brain-inspired attention systems) into testable hypotheses and customer-validated prototypes. His background in electrical engineering and computer science gives him practical systems intuition, while his research track record reveals a knack for turning cognitive theories into deployable ML solutions.
