Biography:
Jared is a computational neuroscientist dedicated to leveraging AI to unravel the complexities of human social interaction and pioneer innovative treatments for neurological disorders. He is currently pursuing his Ph.D. at Michigan State University in the Department of Computational Mathematics, Science, and Engineering and a graduate research assistant in the Multiscale Complex Systems Laboratory led by Dr. Mengsen Zhang. Jared loves harnessing computational sciences to innovate medical research to provide effective treatments for patients with neuropsychiatric disorders by understanding naturalistic behavior in both humans and animals. To expand the domain of his computational background to animal research, brain stimulation, and clinical settings, Jared joined the Carolina Center for Neurostimulation at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (with Dr. Flavio Frohlich) during a summer internship in 2024. Jared is a recipient of the National Science Foundation's AI and Data-Enabled Multiscale Modeling Training Award. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Augustana College in Rock Island, IL where he studied mathematics, piano performance, and computer science. Outside of science, Jared loves playing the piano, hiking, rock climbing, and traveling.
