One of the most pressing challenges in the post-pandemic corporate world is how to combat burnout.
Dr.David Plans, founder ofBioBeatsand lecturer in Psychology atRoyal Holloway, University of London, shared his insights withCristian Owenon the causes of burnout, how it specifically impacts men today, and if it can be prevented by technology.
David Plans initially studied artificial intelligence and media, using evolutionary algorithms to investigate the nature of human improvisation. His first PhD focused on genetic algorithms for classification of human musical behaviour in MPEG7 time series. He then led BioBeats as CEO, a startup that focuses on machine learning models of mental health and disorder. Through his work at BioBeats, he has retrained as a neuroscientist and experimental psychologist, and is now pursuing DPhil work at the University of Oxford's Social Cognition Lab.
