Wanice Carlos Alfes is a cyberpsychologist (FHWien, Vienna) and specialist
in Human-AI Cognitive Engineering - with advanced training at Oxford, MIT,
and Harvard.
Work scope: trust engineering, bias mitigation, and cognitive integrity auditing.
Focusing on Trust, Ethical Governance, and Operational Human-AI Systems,
she operates alongside AI Hubs by consulting and designing frameworks for structuralde-biasing and cognitive integrity auditing.
The goal: stabilize, de-risk, and integrate responsibly.
Her research unites German precision, Brazilian scalability ecosystems, Swiss innovation, and U.S. Knowledge transfer
under EU-GDPR standards. As a thinker and speaker, she gives keynotes on how to position AI capabilities with human
cognitive needs, emotional intelligence, and social norms to build trust and strategic alliances.
Contributions to global organizations include: Pfizer, VALE, Johnson & Johnson, Merck, and TOTAL in Medtech,
intercultural-communication, e-health, UX-Hax (DevOps), and ethical frameworks. She intersects social computing,
psycho-physics, global health, behavioral economics, and political science.
Authoring her first book ThinkMETA, Alfes presents the METAP4-Method based on the 4Ps of Medicine
for Human Cognitive Exponential Growth - which are replicable and scalabe on ethical H-AI systemic models.
Currently, she operates the ViSP-Lab R&D - her innitiative for an interdisciplinary hub in applied Human-AI Cognitive
Engineering. The concept was designed in her post-graduate program at the Harvard University, and received faculty
endorsement. Later, cristalized in her paper at MIT CSAIL.
ViSP-Lab R&D is named by Alfes as "Die Brücke" (The Bridge). The hub aims at uniting DACH governance compliance
with U.S. Knowledge transfer and Brazilian AI-tier research centers, for ethical pilot programs.
Alfes has family in Brazil and Europe. She lives in Bad Homburg, Germany.
