Uzay Macar

Entrepreneur, engineer, and researcher working at the intersection of healthcare, technology, and education. Currently based in London.

I'm the co-founder and CTO of Heba Care, a digital health platform supporting individuals with developmental differences and long-term conditions through care management tools and expert guidance. I also co-lead Aiphabet, a New York-based non-profit dedicated to K-12 artificial intelligence education.

My journey in healthcare technology began with founding Nodr, a next-generation task management software for healthcare professionals. Prior to this, I was a research assistant at Neuroimaging Research Lab at Mila. I graduated from Columbia University in 2021 with a Bachelor of Science in computer science and applied mathematics. I'm thankful to be advised by Ansaf Salleb-Aouissi and Samuel K. Sia during my time at Columbia.

Outside of work, I'm a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts (FRSA) and a recipient of Aspen Institute's Rising Leaders Fellowship. I'm a member of the Youth4Health network of the WHO Regional Office for Europe and a mentor at Global AI Hub. Previous accolades include the Andrew P. Kosoresow Memorial Award for Excellence in Teaching and Service in Computer Science and C.P. Davis Scholarship.
