Welcome to my website, my name is Tushar Arora (तुषार अरोड़ा in hindi). I am a Computational Neuroscience PhD student at Boston University in the labs of Dr. Brian Depasquale and Dr. Chand Chandrasekaran. I did my master’s at Stony Brook University in the Neurobiology department where I was advised by Dr. Il Memming Park. My main research interests are in Computational Neuroscience, Machine Learning, and Dynamical Systems. Currently, I am working on developing latent variable models to characterize neural dynamics from neural data in macaque grasping tasks for analyzing cortical dynamics and controllers for online inference and perturbations.
Before, I also collaborated with Dr. Alex Williams over summer 2022 at the Flatiron Institute to analyze the effect of non-identifiability in Sequential VAEs on latent representation of behavioral data. Before my Master’s, I was working with Dr. Mingbo Cai at IRCN, The University of Tokyo on self supervised object representation. I completed my undergraduate studies at IIIT Delhi in computer science where I worked with Dr. Mayank Vatsa and Dr. Richa Singh on applications of Spiking Neural Networks in facial biometrics. Before that I worked with Dr. Shilpak Banerjee on building measures for complexity of neural networks, and with Dr. Ojaswa Sharma on automating transfer function for volume rendering.
I have been fortunate to have worked on a range of research projects and be advised by an amazing set of scientists. I am also open to learn and discuss almost everything so, feel free to contact me.
