Presenter

Dr. Mustafa Demir is a postdoctoral research associate at Applied Cognitive Ergonomics Laboratory, Wm Michael Barnes '64 Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas, and also works as an associate research scientist at the Biodesign Institute - Center for Applied Structural Discovery and a faculty associate teaching statistics at the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering at Arizona State University (ASU) in Tempe, Arizona. Dr. Demir also works as Dr. Demir received his Ph.D. in Simulation, Modeling, and Applied Cognitive Science, focusing on team coordination dynamics and effectiveness in human-machine teaming (HMT) from ASU in the Spring of 2017. For the last 12 years, his research has been grounded in a human-systems engineering approach, and he seeks to optimize sociotechnical systems by understanding and developing more effective human-centered collaborative AI-powered systems. Since 2012, Dr. Demir has published his academic work in various journals and conference proceedings in social and engineering sciences (h-index: 23). His scientific research interests include designing and developing HMT across multiple task contexts, advanced statistical modeling, quantum and dynamical systems modeling, team cognition, operations research, and econometrics. Dr. Demir has also been a member of The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) since 2015.
