Senior🎓
Top SchoolLakshmi Govindarajan is a computational neuroscientist and ICoN Postdoctoral Fellow at MIT with eight years of interdisciplinary research spanning theoretical computer science, biophysics, and neuroscience. Trained with a PhD from Brown and a dual background in computing and biophysics from the National University of Singapore, she bridges quantitative theory and experimental insight to tackle neural computation problems. Her work blends mathematical modeling, algorithmic thinking, and data-driven analysis to explore how biological principles inform computation. Based in Providence, she brings a nomadic scientific ethos—comfortable shifting between abstract theory and hands-on modeling—to collaborative projects that require both rigor and creative synthesis.
