David Perlman

A Social Network

David M. Perlman moved through the fields of Applied Physics, Electrical Engineering, IT, medical software, and cognitive neuroscience before settling in the world of tech. His work on meditation took him to India to present to HH the Dalai Lama, and led to a thesis using econometrics and psychophysiology to study narrative, social identity, and choice. He has a unique and synergistic perspective on how technology, especially social networks, affect society, psychology, and political processes. Since 2017 he has worked with a number of US and NATO defense agencies on understanding and combating information warfare, particularly the role of social networks in influence campaigns. He also role plays as a legitimate employee of a major tech company in Silicon Valley.
