Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPrasad Shirvalkar is an associate professor and clinician-scientist in San Francisco with eight years post-training experience translating systems neuroscience into novel brain–machine interfaces and neuromodulation therapies for chronic pain. Trained as an MD–PhD in behavioral neurophysiology, he blends clinical pain management and interventional expertise with computational and neuroinformatics approaches developed across institutions like UCSF, Rockefeller, and Mount Sinai. His work spans closed-loop deep brain and spinal cord stimulation, outcomes analytics, and experimental paradigms probing thalamocortical and cortico-thalamic circuits. He leads clinical and research programs that move implantable neurotechnology from mechanistic studies toward measurable patient benefit. Comfortable at the intersection of operating rooms and signal-processing labs, he brings rare dual fluency in patient care and algorithmic neural modeling. Based in the Bay Area, he is driven by pragmatic solutions that relieve suffering while advancing neural engineering.
