Biography

I am working on a rare genetic disorder called Bardet-Biedl Syndrome, which impacts intellectual abilities in addition to other classical features including obesity and blindness. I have a long-standing interest in psychiatric disorders as well, and have been attending the Computational Psychiatry Symposium hosted by Dr. Jacob Michaelson for the last 4 years. I have a strong interest in computational psychiatry, computational genomics, and language-related disorders.
