Emma Brunskill is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at Stanford University, with a courtesy appointment in Education. She holds a PhD in Computer Science from MIT (2009). Her research focuses on reinforcement learning, educational technology, and healthcare applications, aiming to develop AI systems that support human learning and decision-making. Notable projects include AI tutoring systems, policy evaluation methods, and behavior change interventions using large language models. Her work bridges theory and practice, addressing challenges in off-policy evaluation, fairness-aware decision making, and scalable educational tools. Brunskill has contributed to foundational research in reinforcement learning algorithms and their applications in real-world scenarios such as healthcare, education, and human-AI collaboration. She also leads initiatives to improve equity and efficiency in educational technologies through data-driven approaches. Brunskill's research has been supported by grants such as the NSF RI: Small grant for data-efficient reinforcement learning. She actively explores the ethical implications of AI systems, particularly in healthcare and education settings. Her recent work emphasizes leveraging large language models (LLMs) for personalized feedback and simulated training environments, as seen in studies like GPTCoach and LLM-based counselor upskilling.
