Alan Rosen - Work

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.
