Kartik Pradeepan

<computational_neuroscientist/>

Currently building software to understand how brain-like artificial intelligent systems are, at MIT Siegal Family Quest for Intelligence.

I completed my doctorate in Neuroscience at Western University where I was co-supervised by Dr. Julio Martinez-Trujillo and Dr. Lyle Muller. My research investigated the development of microcircuits in stem cell-derived neuronal networks using multielectrode arrays (MEAs) and spiking network modeling.

As a scientist, I am fascinated in the construction of the human system. Through a bottom-up understanding from genetics, developmental biology and organogenesis, to neuroscience, I am interested in taking this knowledge to build better human-like artificial systems.
