Pranav is interested in using computational and mathematical tools to understand schizophrenia and other topics in neuroscience. His mentor, Dr. Gopalkumar Rakesh (Department of Psychiatry), says “Despite being the youngest member of the team, Pranav has emerged as a natural leader in the project.”  Congratulations, Pranav!
