The Summer of 2024, I was a student at the University of Oxford studying computational Neuroscience, a competive program usually open to high level students with demonstrated ability to thrive in the field.
I didn't pick in the first place honestly.
I recieved in A grade, of 'in honorable class' at the Lady Margaret Hall College.
Previously, in this space, I've been researching, self-reading and learning.
In 2020, for a short while I had worked with NeuraliX a Brain-Interface Computing Startup ~ 2 weeks.
Now after Oxford, I was at the University of Cambridge, fully sponsored for Invisible College - by Stripe, global payments giant, and hosted by worksinprogress.co, a magazine for underrated ideas for the world. I was among 30 students as the only Indian student part of it, amongst MIT, Oxford & Cambridge students and gifted induviduals all under 22.
- Here, I met Rory Bryne on the sidelines of the program, a notable PhD student at Cambridge studying Computational Neuroscience, I'll be working on helping Rory on a side project of his, the OmniRing, conceived by Penn State an AR & Neural applicable hardware device that has several medical applications. I will be developing this at T-Works in Hyderabad.
- I joined a prestigious Neuroscience research lab Neuroenthology at Ashoka University as a research intern, led by Harvard Professor, Dr. Bittu.
- Wearable Tech Development: I'm also working on hardware wearable devices such as a lung capacity measurement device with the Koita Center for digital health, a centre at IIT-Bombay & Ashoka - this is to further work in hardware, and add to my work at T-Works
- I will be contributing and updating the Human Information Research Processing Lab at the University of Oxford's department of Experimental Psychology about my work in this space as it progresses and bring them onboard post a while ~ 6 months.
- A note by my lecturer at Oxford.
I am so far, by all means, new to this space. With perhaps just 3 formal months past Oxford, and even lesser time spent. However, my progress while being at Mahindra University is something I'm proud to share.
This is new to me, so I'm actively seeking anyone I can find who could help, chat with me about this space for us to build something upon.
