Hi there 👋 My name is Vanshit (Vraj) Thakkar

Here is my short intro:

  • I just graduated with a B.S. in Neurobiology, Physiology, and Behavior Science from the University of California, Davis.
  • I am a Research Assistant at UC Davis Medical Center, Department of Neurology, under Dr. Temitayo Oyegbile-Chidi.
    • I research executive dysfunction in patients with temporal epilepsy!
  • I am applying for PhD programs in Biomedical Engineering (Neuroengineering focus) and Neuroscience. 🧠🦾
    • I am very interested in Neuroprosthetics, Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs), Machine Learning Models, and Neuromorphic Engineering!

I'm currently working on:

  • Setting up an intro website NerdyMedulla.com
  • Setting up a blog/vlog for projects (and maybe even a podcast 👀)
  • Designing my stack of different models and transformers to work on different tasks simultaneously (more on that coming later)
  • Other hardware projects that I will post as soon as the website is up! (which might take a while, I'm trying to learn node.js in the process)
