I am a doctor and an AI engineer. I am building an instrument to map and upgrade the mind.

Dr. Joshua V. Tanner

I trained as a physician and as an AI engineer at the same time, at Stanford, where I co-directed Stanford HealthAI and taught the Deep Learning in Medicine course. Since then I have built more than thirty AI systems across ten countries, in healthcare, pharma, private equity and government.

I am a founding partner and Head of AI at Nexian, where we build AI systems for regulated, high-stakes industries. I run a small advisory practice, Tanner AI. The work I care most about is MindTech: treating the mind as a system that can be mapped, defended and upgraded.

I am Canadian American, based in Dubai, and in London often.
