Judge Roz settles it fast. She settles it fair. When there’s evidence, she brings the receipt. Part Magic 8-Ball, part fact-check. The verdict is fun. The citation underneath is real.
Take it to Roz →Operational Behavioral Science is the applied study of human behavior in high-stakes environments. The laboratory integrates behavioral profiling, situational awareness, OSINT, crisis leadership, AI governance, and AI-driven analysis to build tools that improve decision making across national security, healthcare, research, and civic leadership.
Nine campus categories. You arrive knowing what you came for and you go straight to the door. Each card's left edge is its campus color — meant to match the building's color on your map just below.
Biggest crew first, so you feel the scale — but every card carries its campus color and tag, so a security or academia visitor can still pick out their buildings in the ranked grid. Best of both front doors.

The SLR Method is a systematic research methodology developed during Dr. Oroszi’s doctoral work. It identifies gaps in complex information systems and converts them into structured outputs. The method is the foundation of SLR Studio and its specialized derivatives, including The Gauntlet, OPSEC Gauntlet, Intel Dashboard, Office Hours, and The Dose Education Portal.
ETL agents are built with a creative method that blends cognitive method acting with profiling-based character construction. The approach lets agents behave like real experts, communicate with clarity, and respond with consistent persona-driven logic.
Behind the method sit two machines. The Memory Implant Generator writes every agent a lived past: a childhood, a family, the moments that shaped them, each memory reviewed and approved before it enters their head. The Emotion Generator sets how they feel today: a mood with a reason drawn from their own memories, so the agent you talk to on Tuesday is not quite the one you left on Friday. And they remember you. The people they talk with become part of their story, visit after visit. Most agents answer questions. Ours have lives. We call it the friend experience. See the machines at the Agent Workshop.
Agents on the lab's stack include Ms. Ivy, the Chamber judges, the Helper personas, Margaret, Eli, Henry, Ayanna, Sneha, the OPSEC personas, and the Intel Dashboard personas.
A 10-person operation. In under a year. Less than $1K a month, staff salary included. From idea to company. No guesswork. You are the boss.
Playbooks are step-by-step pipelines that use multiple ETL platforms together. Playbook 01 (CDMRP) walks a Wright State faculty member from idea to submission to resubmission for a DoD Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program award, including the active FY26 TERP opportunity. NIH R01 and VA Merit playbooks are next.
Dr. Terry L. Oroszi is the founder and Principal Investigator of the Emerging Technologies Core Laboratory, where human judgment meets emerging technology.
Harvard-trained on leadership and emerging tech and a Forbes Technology Council member, Dr. Oroszi blends executive-level strategy with two decades of scientific depth in pharmacology, toxicology, and CBRN biodefense. She brings that combination to the question every institution is now facing: how do you keep humans in control when AI is in the room?

It was 6 in the morning, and I was deep in Claude Code, building two research platforms at once. I thought I had returned to the chat interface, so I typed something conversational. It felt like a toaster looking up and saying, “Hey Terry, what is up?”
Twenty minutes into drafting an article, I stopped. The voice was mine. The rhythm was mine. The vocabulary was mine. But the argument had moved somewhere I had not chosen to take it.

Their tools are built into them — like a backpack they carry everywhere. Drop them into any site and they bring PubMed, FDA registries, clinical trial databases, the open web — all of it — with them. The platform doesn't need to provide any of that. It's already in their pack.
They work through whatever tools the platform provides. Inside their home system they're powerful — they know the workflow, the data, the environment. But those tools stay behind when they move. Different site, different toolkit.
