About

My career involves working with interdisciplinary teams and explaining complicated scientific concepts to varied audiences. I believe my collaboration and communication skills will add to my strengths of being innovative and collaborative culture. My cognitive science education and research experience qualify me to contribute effectively. My expertise in cognitive sciences, judgement and decision making, behavioural sciences, and neurosciences, combined with my hands-on experience in cutting-edge research, makes me a good fit for your company's dynamic and inventive environment. My academic and research experiences have given me a diversified skill set that matches the post. I led an eye tracker-based research at the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi-analyse complex eye data to detect readers' mental states. For visualisation, pupil diameter and eye-gaze data were meticulously analysed using time-series analysis. IiT-Delhi-All India Institute of Medical Sciences (IT Delhi-AIIMS Delhi) to Creating a machine learning model to predict hand-raise movements was one of my major contributions. This research affects spinal cord injury (SCI) outside academia. The subjective and costly evaluation of post-injury movement execution is difficult for physiotherapists. To reduce human rater bias and improve accuracy and cost, I used machine learning to rate 2D video movement execution. My interdisciplinary approach to problem-solving includes deep learning models like Movenet for pose estimation and key point creation and standard machine-learning regression methods. My time at the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur included designing and running a behavioural experiment on implicit control and the self-reference effect. In this capacity, I designed rigorous studies, analysed human data, and used t-tests and ANOVA to identify differences. This experience shows my ability to combine theoretical and empirical studies to advance cognitive sciences. I stand out for my technical skills and ability to apply scientific results. I've studied implicit control's effects on cognitive processes and rating bias in movement appraisal post-spinal cord injury to address real-world issues. These experiences have improved my analytical, critical, and adaptable skills, which are essential for cognitive and behavioural sciences.
