Work
Dr. Rosen is director of Research at Machine Consciousness (MCon), is the originator of the discipline of robotic neurobiology and founder of the Robotic Neurobiology Society. Since 1993, at MCon, he developed and holds patents on the design of conscious, emotional and intelligent humanoid robots. He is an authority in robotic neurobiology, consciousness, and emotions. Prior to 1993, at TRW, he was an advanced systems manager in the science and applications satellite business area, and a laboratory director of the Space Sciences Laboratory. In 1959, when he was hired by TRW Inc., he was a professor of physics and mathematics, at the University of Southern California. At this time, he is a member of the IEEE-computational Intelligence Society, Association for the Scientific Study of Consciousness, International Neural Network Society (INNS), and other neuroscience societies. He is the author of 4 books and published a large number of scientific papers in the peer-reviewed literature. Rosen's specialty is systems engineering and reverse engineering the Darwinian adaptations of biological organs, with emphasis on the human brain and somatic sensory systems. For the past 15 years, working with his son, David B. Rosen, he has reverse-engineered the total functional operation of the human brain, human consciousness, human emotion, human speech comprehension and verbalization, and human intelligence. His robotic neurobiological designs lead to advances in the field of humanoid robotic engineering, neurobiology, psychology, psychiatry, somatic and autonomic medicine, education, and sociobiology.

Famous quotes containing the word work:
“There is no mystery in a looking glass until someone looks into it. Then, though it remains the same glass, it presents a different face to each man who holds it in front of him. The same is true of a work of art. It has no proper existence as art until someone is reflected in it—and no two will ever be reflected in the same way. However much we all see in common in such a work, at the center we behold a fragment of our own soul, and the greater the art the greater the fragment.”
—Harold C. Goddard (1878–1950)
“In the wildest nature, there is not only the material of the most cultivated life, and a sort of anticipation of the last result, but a greater refinement already than is ever attained by man.... Nature is prepared to welcome into her scenery the finest work of human art, for she is herself an art so cunning that the artist never appears in his work.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“One should either be a work of art, or wear a work of art.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
