Vijay Mago is Chair and Associate Professor of Computer Science at Lakehead University, Canada, and Associate Professor at York University's School of Health Policy and Management since 2015. He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Panjab University, India (2010). Education: Ph.D. in Computer Science, Panjab University, India (2010) His research integrates artificial intelligence, machine learning, and natural language processing to address complex societal challenges including homelessness, obesity, and crime through health informatics, medical decision support, and Bayesian intelligence. Current work emphasizes modeling complex health systems and social networks using big data analytics. Recent publications reveal strong interdisciplinary trends applying AI to public health crises (notably COVID-19 modeling) and political/social media analysis, with consistent focus on ethical considerations, system resilience, and narrative shaping in digital environments. Dr. Mago serves as Associate Editor for IEEE Access and BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making, demonstrating significant editorial contributions to his fields. He previously contributed to the Modeling of Complex Social Systems Program at Simon Fraser University's IRMACS Centre starting in 2011, establishing foundational work for his current research trajectory.
