About Me

Hi, I am Mrugank Dake and I am a graduate student at Clayspace Lab, New York University working on understanding the role of distributed representation in working memory. I am broadly interested in how memories are represented in the brain.

Prior to this, I completed my Bachelors and Masters dual degree from the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Tirupati in 2021 with a major in Biology and a minor in Physics. During this period, I have worked on a range of topics in the domains of Synthetic biology, Cancer, Neurobiology, Computational Neuroscience, Ecoacoustics and Machine Learning.

When not having my nth cup of coffee or working with data, I love playing Chess, travelling and reading books.
