Emmott was back in London on January 1, 1997. He was to head the laboratory for advanced research at NCR Corp (which then owned teradata). His research and the research of his Laboratory were recognized for numerous innovations that were made at the interplay of technology, science and finance. This included the invention of Agent-based Internet auctions, the digital wallet and a biologically-inspired, probabilistic method to predict the behaviour of financial markets.

From 2005 to 2010, Emmott was scientific advisor to the Chancellor of The Exchequer. He was a member of the UK Government’s 10 Year Science & Innovation Framework Committee, 2004. He was appointed by the UK government Minister for Science as a trustee of the UK’s National Endowment for Science, Technology & the Arts, 2008–2012. He was an adviser to the Finnish Prime Minister’s Science & Innovation Strategy, 2008. Emmott is Professor of Biological Computation, University College London, and was Professor of Computational Science (visiting), University of Oxford, 2007–2014.

10 Billion was published as a book in 2013. It became an international best- seller. 10 Billion was described by Emmott as ‘A manifesto for our times. A manifesto against complacency.’ In it, Emmott introduced the term ‘unprecedented planetary emergency’ – a term that at the time of its publication was described as ‘exaggeration’ and ‘scare-mongering’. It is a term which has now become widely used by scientists, politicians and activists, popularised by Greta Thunberg.

He earned his PhD in neuroscience computational research at the Centre for Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience, University of Stirling in 1993. He was supervised by Prof. Roger Watt. Being greatly influenced and influenced by the research by David Marr and David Rumelhart Emmott’s doctoral dissertation was focused on understanding and modeling the processes that the brain uses in order to produce vision. He chose to study the visual processing of text since it is the most famous model of an physical system that is designed to mimic the way brains work instead of the reverse.

He was a member of Nobel Laureate Arno Penzias’s department, conducting research into the use of biologically inspired computing which was applied to the first medical, financial and e-commerce applications on the Internet.

In 2003, Emmott joined Microsoft as chief scientist, and head of computational science. Emmott’s vision was ‘to pioneer new computational methods, tools and technologies to enable new kinds of science and accelerate radical solutions to the unprecedented challenges and opportunities of our time.’

The Guardian’s John Gray concluded that, “The shift in thinking that will be needed if we are to prepare ourselves for living in a different world begins with reading Emmott’s indispensable book.” Clive Cookson of the Financial Times said the book was “a stark, simple and short warning about the coming catastrophe, which [Emmott] feels is inevitable, resulting from human population [growing from 7bn to 10 Billion] and over-exploitation of the world’s resources.” In a review of 10 Billion in Nature, Hania Zlotnik noted: “His slim, even terse book [presenting] his view on the “unprecedented planetary emergency we’ve created” — primarily examines the transformation of the global environment by human activity, a transformation that includes climate change, increasing water shortages and growing urbanization. Emmott’s assessment of the capacity of people and technology to prevent the global crises that confront us is grim.”
