Dr. Srikantan S Nagarajan
Department of Radiology, University of California, San Francisco, USA

Brief Biography
Sri Nagarajan obtained his MS and PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Case Western Reserve University and a postdoctoral fellowship at the Keck Center for Integrative Neuroscience at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). Currently, he is a Professor in the Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging at UCSF, and a faculty member in the UCSF/UCB Joint Graduate Program in Bioengineering. His research interests in the areas of Neural Engineering are to better understand brain dynamics in health and disease and its relationship to behavior, through the development of algorithms and tools for improved functional brain imaging and biomedical signal processing. His neuroscience interests include understanding neural mechanisms of brain plasticity associated with sensorimotor learning and of the role of sensory feedback in speech motor control.
