Hey! I am an MD PHD student in the University of Pittsburgh & Carnegie Mellon University Medical Scientist Training Program. My main interests lie at the intersection of psychiatry, computational neuroscience and machine learning. I aim to precisely characterize information processing in the brain underlying healthy and diseased states. Leveraging this knowledge will enable us to develop more effective approaches for psychiatric care.

Currently, I am pursuing a PhD in the Program in Neural Computation at CMU where my training focuses on analytical and experimental aspects of basic computational neuroscience. Under my advisors Steve Chase, Aaron Batista & Byron Yu, I study the neural basis of motor action and learning in subdivisions of the macaque motor cortex using brain computer interfaces.
