Dr Avinash Singh

Associate Professor  |  Australian Artificial Intelligence Institute

Assistant Professor  |  School of Computer science, University of Technology Sydney

Co-Chair  |  Neuroethics Framework for Workplace (IEEE Brain)

​Dr Singh’s interdisciplinary research bridges artificial intelligence, cognitive neuroscience, and mixed reality to develop real-world neuroadaptive brain-computer interface (BCI) systems and contributes to the IEEE Standards Committee on Brain-Computer Interfaces.

He specialises in developing neurotechnology that enables direct non-invasive communication with the brain to interact with the surrounding environment. He is passionate about how he can apply AI technologies on neuroscience to create robust brain-computer interfaces, resulting in enabler for nonverbal and/or non-ambulatory individuals for communication and interaction.

His recent projects include human sensory augmentation, thoughts reconstruction and neuroadaptive brain-computer interfaces.

Dr Singh also serves as an expert advisor to UNICEF and the Centre for Neurotechnology and Law in the UK. In 2021, he received the Google TensorFlow Faculty Award for his contributions to BCI research. As the founder of the India Future Society, a futurist think tank, he actively advocates for transhumanism. Dr. Singh earned his Ph.D. in Computer Science from UTS in 2019, collaborating with institutions such as the Technical University of Berlin, the University of California San Diego, and the US Army Research Lab.
