Welcome to the Social-Engineer Podcast: The Doctor Is In Series – where we will discuss understandings and developments in the field of psychology.
 
In today’s episode, Chris and Abbie are joined by Dr. David Matsumoto.  Dr. Matsumoto, Director of Humintell, is a world-renowned expert in the fields of emotion, nonverbal behavior, deception, and culture. He received his bachelor’s degree from the University of Michigan in 1981, double majoring in psychology and Japanese and receiving High Honors in both.

Dr. Matsumoto is an expert in threat assessment and management, especially in relation to behavioral indicators of operational bad actors.
