“UWF has soul. There’s a soul and a vibrancy about it that you wouldn’t find anywhere else. From the minute you step on that campus, you know you’re part of a team. You feel the care, you feel the love, and you know it’s a place where you belong.”
Founder and CEO, Florida Institute for Human & Machine Cognition

His job calls for him to stay ahead of the curve, always anticipating emerging areas of science, medicine and technology. He describes it as “an ongoing challenge, and one that I enjoy.” For Ford, challenges are part of the journey to new ideas and opportunities, and he’s made a career out of exploring the unknown.
