Dr Fiona Kerr

Dr Fiona Kerr is at the forefront of shaping a future that is technology powered and human centred.

As founder of The Neurotech Institute, she combines unique expertise across cognitive neuroscience, anthropology, psychology, engineering, and complex system dynamics to address how we use emerging technology, when not to technologise, and ethical practices.

Her trailblazing research debunked the assumption that humans exhibit the same level of complex and moral decision-making when interacting with trusted autonomous systems as they would with another human in close proximity. This critical discovery holds implications for defence personnel, doctors, surgeons, analysts, CEO’s and first responders and how they work with technology.

Fiona is a trusted advisor on ethical use of artificial intelligence, serving a range of board and organisational roles. She is also a skilled science communicator, delivering numerous keynotes annually.
