Kathryn Myronuk has dedicated her career to helping people understand and apply research to solve complex problems. In the past 15 years, she has focused on exponential technologies, applying interdisciplinarity to the intersection of STEM fields, Global Grand Challenges (GGCs) and innovation. 

Since 2012 she has been faculty at Singularity University (SU), where she previously was part of the founding team (2007-09), staff/director of research (2009-13) and the inaugural track chair for Synthesis & Convergence (2012-15). SU has held nine of its flagship 9-to-10 week Global Solutions Programs. Myronuk has worked closely with the international, interdisciplinary and intercultural participants in these programs as they built team projects in SU"s GGC focus areas. At SU she"s connected people working in disparate STEM and impact fields (nonprofits, non-governmental organisations and social enterprise) with new capabilities arising from emerging technologies. She has also studied and taught the implications of these technologies in areas such as the future of employment and the future of research.

In 2017 she joined the Engagement Committee at FutureEarth.org, a 10-year initiative launched in 2015 to provide knowledge and support to accelerate transformations to a sustainable world and advance Global Sustainability Science. In 2015 she was named one of CNN"s "Top 7 Tech Heroes to Watch"
