Vakul Nath is a Graduate Research Assistant at Scope Lab researching human-AI teaming approaches for disruption management in school bus systems. His work explores how AI decision support tools can effectively augment human operators, combining machine intelligence with human judgment and domain expertise.

School bus operations involve complex real-world scenarios where human dispatchers and operators must make quick decisions under pressure. Vakul’s research on human-AI teaming ensures that AI systems provide useful decision support that respects operator expertise while improving outcomes for students and families relying on these services.
