Masters Student
Department of Computer Science
Stanford University

I am a first year Masters student at the Department of Computer Science at Stanford University. I am presently working with the Brains In Silicon group under Prof. Kwabena Boahen.

Previously, I worked as a Software Design Engineer with Microsoft India R&D. Prior to that, I completed my Bachelors of Technology in Information Technology with Honors at the Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad.

Research Interests:

I hold an active interest in the fields of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Neuroscience. I am interested in Neuromorphic systems which emulate networks of biological neurons on analog VLSI chips. I am presently exploring motor planning–control in biological neural systems, and hope to build a neuromorphic system with similar capabilities.

For more about me, please feel free to peruse my CV and the rest of my web site.
