About Me
I am a researcher and engineer at the intersection of Machine Learning, Computer Vision, and Computational Neuroscience. I am actively seeking roles in Data Science, Machine Learning, and AI — both in industry and research.
Previously, I worked as a Research Scientist in the Learning in Early Childhood group at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences (Leipzig, Germany), where I led the design of end-to-end pipelines for processing neuroimaging data, integrating technical expertise with insights into human cognitive development.
I hold a B.Sc. (Hons) in Physics (2018) and an M.Sc. in Life Science Informatics (2020). My interdisciplinary background spans physics, neuroscience, and machine learning, with a particular focus on understanding visual perception through computational models.
My research interests include representational alignment between humans and machines, computer graphics-based approaches to studying brain function, and the application of deep learning to neuroimaging. I am passionate about building bridges between neuroscience and AI.

Activities and Highlights
VMV 2025
I attended VMV 2025 as a helper and organizer at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg.
UniReps 2025 Reviewer
I served as a reviewer for the UniReps 2025 conference.
M2L Summer School, Croatia
I attended the M2L Summer School in Croatia from September 8–12, 2025. It was a fantastic experience meeting scientists and researchers from across the field. 300 participants were selected from 1700 applicants, covering topics from transformers to diffusion models.
Cohere Summer School Online
I attended the Cohere Summer School Online and remain connected with the community!
ICLR 2025 Presentation
I had the opportunity to present my work at ICLR 2025, one of the premier conferences in machine learning, held in Singapore. During the poster session, I showcased my research titled “Computer Graphics from a Neuroscientist’s Perspective” (PDF), engaging with domain experts from both computer science and neuroscience. The constructive feedback and interdisciplinary discussions significantly informed and shaped the next phase of my project.

Society for Neuroscience (SfN) Chapter, Singapore
I attended the Society for Neuroscience chapter in Singapore, where I participated in neuroscience outreach, helped organize local events, and fostered interdisciplinary collaboration between computational and biological sciences.

Some talks which I suggest to watch
- Encoding and Decoding speech from the brain
- ‘Godfather of AI’ predicts ALL jobs will be in ‘wiped out’ by AI
Courses I suggest to audit
- Introduction to Machine Learning
- Computational Visual Perception - I was also a part of this course as a Teaching Assistant
- Visual Computing for the Life Sciences - Offered by Prof. Dr. Thomas Schultz and is one of the best courses I ever attended. I must say that Prof. Schultz is one of the best course instructors I have met or learned from. His slides were always clear, structured and very easy to understand. They made hard concepts in Computer Science available to an audience of non-computer scientists at the Master level which was nothing short of great for the students.
- Introduction to Deep Learning
- Introduction to Neuroscience
- Introduction to Brain Computer Interfaces
Podcasts and Videos I suggest watching
- Consciousness, reasoning and the philosophy of AI
- Pawan Sinha with Project Prakash

- Education in transition – we are not applying our brains to it?
- Inventing Liquid Neural Networks
- Prof. Bishop’s new Computer Vision Notebook
- The day after AGI
- The Brain that Changes Itself - the first documentary which inspired me about the plasticity of the brain and how are abilities are not fixed over life. We can change it over time with Neurofeedback, also use BCIs (brain computer interfaces) for Neurofeedback!
Articles, which can also be listened to as a Podcast
Movies I suggest
a. A Beautiful Mind (about John Nash and Game Theory)
b. The Imitation Game
c. Theory of Everything
d. Inception
