During my years at the Motor Behavior Lab, I studied how sensory information can affect the control policy of the brain. In particular I focused on the effects of visual feedback on reaching movements. My work consisted of three main parts: Modeling: I built predictive models of the nervous system. I used multi-objective optimization techniques, Bayesian statistics, and non-linear dynamics to characterize the behavior of these models. Data Analysis: I processed, visualized… Show more During my years at the Motor Behavior Lab, I studied how sensory information can affect the control policy of the brain. In particular I focused on the effects of visual feedback on reaching movements. My work consisted of three main parts: Modeling: I built predictive models of the nervous system. I used multi-objective optimization techniques, Bayesian statistics, and non-linear dynamics to characterize the behavior of these models. Data Analysis: I processed, visualized and analyzed large scale data from human subjects. With the help of machine learning techniques and statistical tests, I quantify the effects of different features and derive conclusions for hypothesis testing. Experimental Studies: I use augmented reality to design psychophysical experiments for human subjects. I have designed several experiments and ran more than 200 subjects for my studies. I program the BKIN’s End-Point Lab robot to create reaching tasks. The robot collects real-time data with a frequency of 2000 Hz.

Aug 2016 - Dec 2019
As a teaching assistant for undergraduate courses such as "Dynamical Systems and Control", I gave tutorials on linear algebra and computer programming for senior ME students. Mentored over 100 students for modeling, analyzing and understanding mechanical systems. Evaluated students' performance projects, exams and homework to obtain their final course grade.

As a member of the Advanced Robotics Lab, I designed and assembled a camera holder robot for laparoscopic surgeries. I used computer vision to control the position and orientation of the robot's 4 degrees of freedom.
