Adi is a graduate fellow of the Agency of Science, Technology and Research (a*star), Singapore, where he combined experimental and theoretical tools to understand social behavior. He is also mentored by Ann Kennedy at Northwestern University and Scott Linderman at Stanford University. He on a quest to redefine the way we think of emotional behaviors and neuropsychiatric disorders by studying emotions like aggression in a variety of model systems, from mice to jellyfish, through the lens of dynamical systems and machine learning. Adi is passionate about changing the narrative of mental health and by re-conceptualizing mental disorders with the computational properties of neural circuits in mind, he hopes we can begin embracing the diversity in how these disorders are expressed.
