Andrew Ho

Andrew Ho, M.D, psychiatrist.

Since childhood, I have been fascinated by how people learn to deal with adversities such as bad grades, breakups, and their own mortality. I worked as a programmer in college and became interested in artificial intelligence as a way to understand human psychology. I chose to become a psychiatrist after completing medical school because the human mind is flexible enough to heal itself, with just a little bit of help. In academia, my areas of research included sleep, addiction, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, migraine, and improving clinical outcomes.

I was an associate clinical professor at UCLA and held research roles at Merck, Amgen, Takeda, and other biotech companies.

I graduated from UC San Diego School of Medicine in 1991.

I enjoy solving problems and apply my knowledge to help patients improve their lives.
