Hi, I'm Pranav.
I'm a doctoral researcher in the computational pain and aversive learning lab at the University of Oxford advised by Prof. Ben Seymour (NDCN, IBME) and co-advised by Dr. Ioannis Havoutis (ORI). My background is in engineering and I enjoy philosophical discourses.
I'm introverted. I try to keep thinking about conflicting ideas for longer periods of times and I find paradoxes deeply interesting. Much of my work is very interdisciplinary and I'm quite comfortable being an outsider in a new field of study.
I sketch sometimes (digitally) and enjoy electronic music. I am an Indian native from Pune city and I now live in Oxford, UK.
