Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolWisam Reid is a multidisciplinary neuroscientist and founder with 11 years of experience probing how biophysical neuron properties give rise to circuit-level computation. Currently a PhD candidate at Harvard Medical School and a research assistant at MIT, he blends experimental electrophysiology and computational modeling to study auditory plasticity and dendritic processing. He founded and leads Harvard GSAS’s Association for Meditation & Psychedelic Studies, reflecting an unusual bridge between rigorous lab science and contemplative, translational inquiry. With prior training in music, EECS, and signal processing from Stanford and UC Berkeley, he brings deep expertise in acoustics, machine learning for music, and mobile EEG tools. He has taught and built courses on deep learning for music information retrieval and applied neuroscience workshops, showing a rare mix of pedagogy, engineering, and creative practice. Colleagues cite his ability to translate complex biophysical theory into experimentally tractable questions and practical computational tools.
