In this riveting interview, we have Dr. Marc Lanovaz, a University of Montreal professor at the forefront of integrating data science and machine learning in behavioral healthcare. We discuss the impact of cultural relevancy in behavior analysis, how machine learning can improve clinical decision-making in mental health, and a groundbreaking virtual reality application simulating the world from an autistic perspective. The discussion also delves into the utilization of machine learning in tracking and predicting behavior changes and workplace stress. Moreover, Dr. Lanovaz underlines the significance of reinforcement in behavior therapy and its potential in data-driven applications that could revolutionize behavioral science and mental health care.

Social-emotional and behavioral health services are not widely available to the general public, and there is a critical shortage of behavioral healthcare providers. For example, as it stands, the behavioral health workforce needs to double in order to serve autistic children in need. People with low income, Asians, Pacific Islanders, BIPOC, and those living in…

Who can benefit from behavior therapy?
Dr. Ron van Houten noticed that pedestrian fatalities in his community were out of control. He was determined to find a solution so that children could safely cross the street. His research demonstrated a few sources of the problem: drivers were speeding, failing to yield, and stopping too closely to the crosswalks. It was evident…
