Hi 🧸

I’m Sahil Suresh, an MD-PhD student at Tufts University School of Medicine.

I am extremely passionate about ways in which we can broadly leverage advancements in technology to better inform medicine. This involves the study of recurrent neural networks, mathematical modeling, machine learning and their roles in decoding the complex neural dynamics associated with cognitive dysfunction and aberrant behavioral patterns associated with psychiatric disease states.

During my PhD education, I hope to explore novel deep learning frameworks that can parse meaningful patterns from fMRI data to serve as early biomarkers for often underdiagnosed psychiatric conditions.

During my MD education, I am interested in AI-driven solutions to increasing accessibility to medical education.
