Aaron C. Elkins is an Associate Professor in the Department of Management Information Systems and Director and Founder of the James Silberrad Brown Center for Artificial Intelligence Research at San Diego State University (SDSU). His work focuses on developing socially intelligent humanoid robots designed to interact naturally with people in settings like classrooms, clinics, and security checkpoints. These robots use advanced artificial intelligence that can run efficiently on compact, portable systems. Elkins also researches how to make AI systems more understandable, trustworthy, and fair—especially when they're used to detect emotions, mental health conditions, or signs of deception from human behavior. He is involved in creating new tools that help AI systems work together more effectively and in building customized AI models to support human-centered tasks like therapy and mental health screening. At SDSU, he teaches AI and machine learning in the Fowler College of Business and leads the design of the university’s signature research robot, built in-house to showcase the Center’s innovations. Before joining SDSU, he was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Arizona and Imperial College London.
