Youngjun Cho is a Professor of Computational Physiology in the Department of Computer Science at UCL and a part of the GDI, the WHO Collaborating Centre for Research on Assistive Technology, and UCLIC. He is also is a co-founder and principal AI architect for KIT-AR (UCL/Sintef Spinout company). He explores, builds, and evaluates novel techniques and technologies for the next generation of artificial intelligence-powered physiological computing, aiming to boost disability technology innovation. He has pioneered mobile thermal imaging-based physiological sensing and automated detection of affective states (e.g., mental stress). He obtained a PhD from the Faculty of Brain Sciences at UCL. Before joining UCL as a faculty member, he served as a senior researcher and specialist (in AI and HCI) at a multinational corporation and led a range of research-driven innovations, successfully commercializing his novel sensing and machine learning technologies (e.g., gesture-driven advanced touchscreens for vehicles).
