Senior🎓
Top SchoolThomas Kerwin is a research-driven Director of Operations with 13 years managing human-subjects simulation studies and a longer track record developing medical and visualization simulators. Based in Columbus, Ohio, he runs the OSU Driving Simulation Laboratory, designing scenarios and overseeing experiments that probe distracted driving, semi-autonomous control transfer, and performance in special populations. His background as a research scientist at the Ohio Supercomputer Center includes leading development of a volumetric temporal bone surgery simulator and securing grant-funded projects in interactive graphics and medical simulation. Equally comfortable with hands-on simulator maintenance and client-facing experiment design, he blends deep technical expertise from a PhD in Computer Science and Engineering with practical operational leadership. Notably, his work crosses domains—from driving behavior to surgical training—highlighting a rare ability to translate complex simulation technology into real-world evaluation and training tools.
