Dr. Brokoslaw Laschowski is a machine learning researcher and computational neuroscientist. He is a Research Scientist and Principal Investigator at the University Health Network and an Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto. He also directs the Machine Intelligence Lab, an interdisciplinary research lab working at the intersection of machine learning, artificial intelligence, and computational neuroscience. His long-term vision is to develop a computational understanding of intelligence by reverse-engineering and building neural networks and learning systems.

His research has resulted in publications in leading journals and international conferences, invited talks at institutions such as Microsoft Research, best paper awards, and external grant funding. His work has also been featured in Forbes, BBC, and Science Magazine, and highlighted in a keynote by Jensen Huang—Founder and CEO of NVIDIA—and showcased to the President of South Korea.

Beyond research, Dr. Laschowski leads interdisciplinary teams with expertise across computer science, engineering, neuroscience, and mathematics. He serves as an Associate Editor for Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, reviews for high-impact journals such as IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems, and has organized workshops at international conferences including NeurIPS. He also directs the University of Toronto’s summer research program in computer science for displaced students from Ukraine, in partnership with the Vector Institute for Artificial Intelligence.
