I am a physician fascinated by chaos theory, aspiring to pursue a Ph.D. in Biomedical Data Science. I graduated from medical school in India and am involved in various clinical research projects. Currently, I am pursuing my Master's in Quantitative Biology and Bioinformatics at
Carnegie Mellon University.
​
I'm developing my skills in programming along with the fundamental mathematics necessary for machine learning(ML) and computational medicine. There's generally a large gap between an engineer's knowledge of the human body and a physician's understanding of ML.
And this is where I want to make a difference.
I like to understand human pathophysiology from a mathematical perspective. I have worked on research projects in COVID-19, dengue, chronic kidney disease, and chronic liver diseases with prognostic end-points. Besides two interesting case reports, I have also worked on the applications of chaos theory and "Fractals" in the field of medicine.
